Matthew Poole and continuators on Genesis 22:4

4 Then on the third day Abraham lift up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

Probably on the beginning of the third day. It is true, Moriah was not three days journey from Beer-sheba. But it must be considered that the ass, upon which he rid, is a dull and slow Creature, and that Abraham went no faster than the rest of his Company, who, for ought appears, were on foot; and that the provisions which they carried along with them, both for their own and the asses subsistence and for sacrifice must needs retard them.
