Hebrews11:18
18 Of whom it was said , That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
This did greaten Abraham's Tryal, that unto him it was promised by God himself, That in this only begotten Son Isaac, the eminently blessed, and blessing Seed, with all his mystical Body should be called; that is, put in being, propagated and made known as by Name in Isaac, Gal. 4.28. This God revealed to Abraham, Gen. 17.19, 21. and hereby was his Faith put to it to reconcile Contradictions, as to believe this special Promise, and yet execute this special Command to sacrifice Isaac, yet to believe in him his Seed should be called.
