“God will provide 1  for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham replied. The two of them continued on together.

NET Notes

1 tn Heb “will see for himself.” The construction means “to look out for; to see to it; to provide.”

1 sn God will provide is the central theme of the passage and the turning point in the story. Note Paul’s allusion to the story in Rom 8:32 (“how shall he not freely give us all things?”) as well as H. J. Schoeps, “The Sacrifice of Isaac in Paul’s Theology,” JBL 65 (1946): 385-92.
