The Binding of Isaac ( "ʿAqēḏaṯ Yīṣḥaq", in Hebrew also simply "the Binding", "hāʿAqēḏāh") is a story from the Hebrew Bible found in Genesis 22. In the biblical narrative, God tells Abraham to sacrifice his son, Isaac, on Moriah. Abraham begins to comply, when a messenger from God interrupts him. Abraham then sees a ram and sacrifices it instead.
