Whose promises was Isaac the result of?
Isaac was the result of God's promises. God had told Abraham that he would have a son and call his name Isaac. At the set time God had spoken, Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, and the promised child finally made his appearance.
Les explains that the child Isaac is the result of God's promises. God had said Abraham would have a son and call his name Isaac, which means laughter. At the set time God had spoken, Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age. Abraham circumcised Isaac at eight days old, as God commanded. Sarah said God had made her laugh. Les notes the promised child finally appears, while the child of the flesh remains, and it is coming to a head.
And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
