| Dear Winnie - Yes, there are strong indicators from the context itself that point to the fact that Abraham lost no time and showed no reluctance in obeying God's command to take his son Issac to the land of Moriah, there to offer him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains. (Gen. 22:2). Thus we have reason to believe that the phrase "early in the morning" (verse 3) very likely meant early in the morning of the day immediately following the day when God issued His command. The distance between Beersheba and Moriah was approximately 50 miles and verse 4 tells us that "on the third day Abraham raised his eyes and saw the place from a distance." So the probability is that Abraham, Isaac and the two young men who accompanied them saddled up and departed Beersheba early in the morning of the very next day. --Hank | ||||||
