Abstract: | "Unbinding Isaac assembles multiple strands of thought and modern knowledge of ancient human sacrifice to offer an original reading of the Akedah. God would like to want child sacrifice-a remarkable display of devotion-but moreso does not want child sacrifice. An authentically religious act cannot be done through the harm of another human being" |
