Where did Isaac disappear?
This question has triggered numerous discourses and speculations – where did Isaac go after the sacrifice? The Scriptures inform us only about Abraham's return. But Isaac vanishes and does not reappear until Genesis 24, right before his meeting with Rebekah.
Gen. 24:62 says that Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi. If you don’t know Hebrew, this name means nothing. In Hebrew, however, it has a profound meaning: The Well of “the One Who Sees Me Lives”! While Isaac had vanished from the scene, he never vanished from God’s sight. Though his parents could not see him (and were probably worried), and though he was not visible to us, God still saw him and knew everything about him – just as He sees you and me: The One Who Sees Me Lives. Hebrew hides messages that could transform your entire world. That is why we’ve created “Discovering the Hebrew Bible” online course. In our live lessons, we will unearth fascinating nuggets of meaning that cannot be seen in translation. Do not miss this opportunity! Enroll today and discover the Hebrew Bible with us.
