THREE SERMONS ON THE SACRIFICE OF ABRAHAM. By Mr. John

Calvin.

At the beginning and at the end of the first of these sermons are inserted the prayers which the Author was accustomed to make in his ordinary sermons. Hebrews 11:17 — “By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac;

and he that had received the promises offered up his only-begotten son.” These three sermons were preached by the Author on the passage contained in Genesis from chapter 21, verse 33, to verse 15 of the following chapter

22.
“I came not to send peace, but a sword.” — Matthew 10
With Privilege. Geneva. 1561.
