Profound Miracle (21:68 – 21:72)

Profound Miracle

21:68 They said, “Burn him and support your gods, if this is what you decide to do.”

21:69 We said, “O fire, be cool and safe for Abraham.”*

21:70 Thus, they schemed against him, but we made them the losers.

21:71 We saved him, and we saved Lot, to the land that we blessed for all the people.

21:72 And we granted him Isaac and Jacob as a gift, and we made them both righteous.

*21:69 “Cool,” without “and safe” would have caused Abraham to freeze.
