NETBible

“Do not harm the boy!”¹ the angel said.² “Do not do anything to him, for now I know³ that you fear⁴ God because you did not withhold your son, your only son, from me.”

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “Do not extend your hand toward the boy.”

²tn Heb “and he said, ‘Do not extend…’”; the referent (the angel) has been specified in the context for clarity. The order of the introductory clause and the direct discourse has been rearranged in the translation for stylistic reasons.

³sn For now I know. The test was designed to see if Abraham would be obedient (see v. 1).

⁴sn In this context fear refers by metonymy to obedience that grows from faith.
