When God asked Abraham to give his son as a sacrifice on Mt. Moriah, he complied without questioning God as to why he asked this most unusual thing, especially when the boy had been a gift from God when they were childless. As Abraham approached Moriah, he turned to the men accompanying him and said, "Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you" (Genesis 22:5).
