I never looked at the story of Abraham & Isaac the same way as this author depicted it. It‘s the whole shadow theory and looking at it as a precursor for things to come (in the New Testament) that I never caught before. It was very intriguing to see things from LaPierre‘s viewpoint. The Biblical parallels he pointed out from Abraham & Issac to God & Jesus were truly amazing. I feel like reading this section of the Bible makes much more sense now.

Laura317 Yes! I can‘t imagine how Abraham felt preparing to sacrifice his son. And that Isaac must have been willing!? Very much like God and Jesus. 6y
CouronneDhiver There are so many great parallels everywhere in the Bible. 🙂 It‘s wonderful 6y

monkeygirlsmama Agreed, I don‘t know that I could be as diligent. God willing I never have to put that to the test. 6y
