1819–1905
Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"And the angel of Jehovah called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham. And he said, Here I am." — Genesis 22:11 (ASV)

The angel of the Lord. — Up to this point, the narrative had been Elohistic, but it is the angel of Jehovah who interferes to stop the sacrifice .
