Abraham offering up Isaac 插畫檔

Vintage colour lithograph from 1880 showing Abraham offering up Isaac. Abraham was commanded by God to offer his son up as a sacrifice. The patriarch traveled three days until he came to the mount that God taught him. Proceeded alone to the mountain, Isaac carrying the wood upon which he would be sacrificed. Along the way, Isaac repeatedly asked Abraham where the animal for the burnt offering was. Abraham then replied that God would provide one. Just as Abraham was about to sacrifice his son, he was prevented by an angel, and given on that spot a ram which he sacrificed in place of his son.
