In the Bible, the story of Isaac's sacrifice is told in the book of Genesis. Abraham, a righteous man, receives a trial from God. He is asked to sacrifice his son, his only son Isaac, on Mount Moriah. Abraham, in his deep faith, obeys the divine command and sets off with Isaac.
When they reach the top of the mountain, Abraham prepares to perform the sacrifice. But at the last moment, an angel dissuades him and informs him that the purpose of the test has been achieved: Abraham has proved that he obeys God above all else. Instead, a ram is found as a sacrifice, which Abraham sacrifices instead of Isaac.
