Isaac is the second of the three patriarchs of the Jewish people, the son of Abraham and Sarah, and the husband of Rebecca. After he was almost sacrificed in a test of his father's faith at the Binding of Isaac, he became heir to the covenant of Abraham, which he eventually passed on to his younger son, Jacob, later renamed Israel.
