Commentators universally highlight that Abraham 'rose early in the morning.' This detail is not merely about the time of day; it demonstrates his immediate, unhesitating obedience. As John Calvin notes, Abraham did not linger or allow the 'innumerable thoughts' of the night to paralyze him. His promptness shows a faith that chooses to obey God without delay, rather than arguing or consulting 'flesh and blood,' as Matthew Henry puts it.
