Genesis 22:7-8 TPT

“Father?” Isaac broke the silence. “Yes, my son,” Abraham replied. “We have the wood and the fire,” Isaac said, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” Abraham answered, “My son, God himself will provide the lamb for an offering.” So they went on together.

Genesis 22:13 TPT

As Abraham looked up, his eyes fell upon a ram caught by its horns in a nearby thicket. Abraham took the ram and sacrificed it on the altar as a burnt offering in Isaac’s place.
