Kejadian 6:21

6:21 And you must take ¹  for yourself every kind of food ²  that is eaten, ³  and gather it together. ⁴  It will be food for you and for them.

Kejadian 22:8

22:8 “God will provide ⁵  for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham replied. The two of them continued on together.

[6:21]  ¹ tn The verb is a direct imperative: “And you, take for yourself.” The form stresses the immediate nature of the instruction; the pronoun underscores the directness.

[6:21]  ² tn Heb “from all food,” meaning “some of every kind of food.”

[6:21]  ³ tn Or “will be eaten.”

[6:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “and gather it to you.”

[22:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “will see for himself.” The construction means “to look out for; to see to it; to provide.”

[22:8]  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.
