If you are referring to Abraham being commanded by God to sacrifice his son Isaac, then I would interpret it this way: God commanded Abraham to sacrifice his son and due to his faith Abraham complied with this command. At the moment of truth God intervened by sending an angel to stop Abraham and provided a substitute sacrifice in the form of a ram. This was a prelude to God sending his only son, Yeshua, to die as a sacrifice for the sins of man. This test was also to answer the question, will Abraham give anything for God. Would he go anywhere even if it was painful. And does he trust that God will uphold his promises.
