Isaac was born on the forty-third Jubilee from Adam!" Thinking about it, he realized the symbolism was pretty cool. It was Isaac YHWH first used to test Abraham's faith by seeing if he would sacrifice his firstborn son. Zane turned the old pages in the Bible in front of him to Genesis 22. "What faith!" he muttered as he read Abraham's explanation to Isaac. And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. {Genesis 22:7–8}
