The Binding of God: Genesis 22 as a Test Case for Open Theism in the OT (part 2)
One such historical tale would certainly be the passage at hand.In many ways, the context of exile was a mirror to the plight that faced Isaac. Israel experienced the judgment of death to their nation by God, but in spite of this the prophet Jeremiah testified that they would not be completely destroyed “because I [God] am Israel’s father, and Ephraim is my firstborn son” (Jeremiah 31.9). “As Isaac was saved from death, so was Israel delivered from the brink of annihilation.” [1] Even with this hope that God would bring them into liberation, the painful realization was that they chose the exact opposite path of their father Abraham. He chose obedience in the greatest of paradoxical circumstances; they chose idolatry by climbing up the mountain to make sacrifices to pagan deities. Abraham demonstrated everything exilic Israel failed to be.
Not only did this narrative speak to Israel’s eventual situation in exile, but most certainly spoke to the generations prior to the calamity. For those who see Genesis through the lens of the documentary hypothesis (and its developments) chapter 22 fits in the “E” tradition, which “suggests an original pre-Israelite setting.” [2] Those who carried the stories prior to exile, this particular one dating somewhere between 2200 BCE to 1200 BCE, orated this incident because it had significance to the people of God immediately following the time of Abraham as well. [3] Abraham’s descendents looked back at the covenant that was confirmed because of his obedience to God’s difficult command (see v. 15-19), and looked forward to the unfolding future that was theirs to create in continuity with the promise revealed at the end of the test. God told Abraham the result of his obedience would be that “through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me” (Genesis 22.18). This text is one that spoke to those of pre-Israel, to those in exile, to New Testament times, and throughout history into our day. Genesis 22 is a passage that keeps on speaking as it invites us to see the promises for the open future of Abraham to be realized through the people of God who find their roots in that covenant.
