舊約聖經中記載，亞伯拉罕在他一百歲，即撒拉九十歲的時候生了以撒。當上帝的使者告訴撒拉，她將老年得子時，撒拉不相信地笑了，因此有了以撒這個名字。
上帝為了要考驗亞伯拉罕的信心，命令亞伯拉罕將以撒獻為燔祭。亞伯拉罕遵從上帝的旨意，但就在他要殺死以撒的最後一刻，上帝的天使阻止了他。當以撒四十歲的時候，他迎娶了利百加。
The name Isaac, which means “he laughs,” was derived from his parents’ reaction when God told Abraham that he, at 100 years old, and his wife Sarah, at the age of 90, would have a son Isaac.
Many years later, Isaac was taken by his father up a mountain where Abraham, in obedience to God, prepared to sacrifice him.
After Sarah death, Abraham sent one of his servants to find a wife for Isaac from their clan, as Abraham was determined his son should not have a Canaanite for a wife. Abraham’s servant prayed to have success in finding a suitable wife, and God directed his quest. When he was forty, Isaac married his cousin Rebekah
