That story has confused still.

What has been passed down is a mess. Some scholars argue that in the original story, Issac was sacrified like Canonite first born were. Only later was the story changed to him being saved because canonite child sacrifice was no longer accepted by the majority of the community. Rabbis point out that Abraham and Issac never speak to each other again after that incident.
