    • Abstract:
      Traditionally, biblical characters tend to be seen as models, and not as mirrors of human behavior, so it is almost a sin to question their practices, even when they attempt against the lives of children and women. The Hebrew Scriptures are both the national history of a people and a completely religious account of the encounters of this people with their God. The aspects of this national history do not always conform to the ideals of religion, nor do certain issues that are taken for granted in a given text meet the necessary standards in the development of revelation. This article addresses the story of Ishmael's and Isaac's sacrifices from the perspective of the family's intrigues and not only that of the patriarch Abraham and his beloved son Isaac. Likewise, it supports the hypothesis that Gn 22 is a midrastic lecture of ancient traditions, especially Ishmael's sacrifice in Gn 21. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
    • Abstract:
      Tradicionalmente los personajes bíblicos tienden a ser vistos como modelos y no como espejos de la actuación humana; por eso es casi un pecado cuestionar sus prácticas, aun cuando estas atenten contra la vida de niños y mujeres. Las Escrituras hebreas son tanto la historia nacional de un pueblo como un relato completamente religioso que narra los encuentros de este pueblo con su Dios. Los aspectos de esta historia nacional no siempre se ajustan a los ideales de la religión, ni ciertas cuestiones que se dan por sentadas en un texto determinado cumplen con los estándares necesarios en el desarrollo de la revelación. El presente artículo ve la historia del sacrificio de Ismael e Isaac a partir de las intrigas familiares y no solo desde el patriarca Abraham y su hijo amado Isaac. Así mismo, sustenta la hipótesis de que Gn 22 es una lectura midrástica de tradiciones anteriores, en especial del sacrificio de Ismael de Gn 21. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
