Genesis 22:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 22:15

And the Angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven
the second time.
] The Angel having restrained him from slaying his son, and having provided another sacrifice, which he offered, calls to him again; having something more to say to him, which was to renew the covenant he had made with him, and confirm it by an oath.

Genesis 22:15 In-Context

13 When Abraham looked around, he saw a ram behind him caught by its horns in a bush. So Abraham took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
14 Abraham named that place The LORD Will Provide. It is still said today, "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided."
15 Then the Messenger of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time
16 and said, "I am taking an oath on my own name, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not refused to give me your son, your only son,
17 I will certainly bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and the grains of sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of their enemies' cities.
