Usage: The name "Isaac" means "he laughs" or "laughter," reflecting the joy and surprise of his parents, Abraham and Sarah, at his birth in their old age. In the New Testament, Isaac is often mentioned in genealogies and discussions of faith, serving as a key figure in the lineage of Jesus Christ and as an example of God's promise and faithfulness.
Cultural and Historical Background: Isaac is a patriarch in the Hebrew Bible, the son of Abraham and Sarah, and the father of Jacob and Esau. His life is a testament to God's covenant with Abraham, as Isaac was the child of promise through whom God's blessings would continue. The account of Isaac's near-sacrifice by Abraham on Mount Moriah is a pivotal moment in biblical history, symbolizing obedience and foreshadowing the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ.
