Genesis 22:14

Jehovah-jireh. Remembering now his own prophetic words to Isaac, Abraham named the spot Jehovah-jireh, “Jehovah will provide.” This name, Moses adds, gave birth to the proverb, “In the Mount of Jehovah it shall be seen [literally, ‘provided’].” The meaning of this proverb is somewhat obscure. The word here translated “seen” is the same as that rendered “provide” in v. 8. The proverb is obviously reminiscent of Abraham’s expression of faith that in the amount divinely appointed, God Himself would provide a means of salvation. This proverb constituted an expression of the Messianic hope, whether or not such a meaning was entirely clear to those quoting it. Upon this sacred spot, in the holy of holies of Solomon’s Temple, the Shekinah glory of God later took its abode. Hard by this mount occurred the rejection by the Jewish leaders of the true Lamb of God.
