This article concerns events of the Old Testament – Yahweh
commands Abraham to sacrifice his only son – Isaac – on
Mount Moriah. This passage from the Old Testament, from the
Book of Genesis, became the basis of Søren Kierkegaard’s considerations
in Fear and Trembling. In the text I refer to, on the one
hand, Kierkegaard’s considerations, while on the other hand I try
to identify other possible interpretive tropes that could be useful,
for example, during classes on the subject of faith or the status
of ethical dilemmas in the modern world.
