THE Biblical account found at Genesis 22: 6 states that, in order to prepare to offer a sacrifice at a distant location, Abraham “took the wood for the burnt offering and put it on his son Isaac. Then he took in his hands the fire and the knife, and the two of them walked on together. ”
Mozus grāmatas 22. nodaļas 6. pantā, ir teikts, ka Ābrahāms, kam kādā tālā vietā bija jāziedo upuris, ” paņēma dedzināmo malku un to uzlika Īzākam, savam dēlam, bet pats savā rokā ņēma uguni un nazi, un abi soļoja viens otram līdzās ”.
