The account of Abraham offering Isaac emphasizes that God is a jealous God and will not tolerate any other gods. Furthermore, (1) God has a plan, (2) God will provide, and (3) our continued participation in the plan and receipt of blessings from God hinges on our having only one God. Isaac in this account becomes a type of Christ while Abraham becomes a type of God. Isaac had an implicit faith in his father, willingly submitted himself to be sacrificed. This test proved to God that Abraham had no other gods before God.
