Gênesis 22
Athanasius of Alexandria · Comentário Patrístico (catena)
Gênesis 22:13
Thus the sacrifice was not for the sake of Isaac but for that of Abraham, who was tested by being called upon to make this offering. And of course, God accepted his intentions, but he prevented him from slaying Isaac. The death of Isaac would not buy freedom for the world. No, that could be accomplished only by the death of our Savior, by whose stripes we are all healed. — FESTAL LETTERS 6
