Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root צָחַק (tsachaq), meaning "to laugh" or "to rejoice."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: G2464 (Ἰσαάκ • Isaak): The Greek equivalent of the Hebrew יִצְחָק, used in the New Testament to refer to Isaac. This name appears in genealogies and discussions of faith, particularly in the context of the promises made to Abraham and his descendants (e.g., Matthew 1:2, Romans 9:7, Hebrews 11:17-20).

Isaac's story is integral to the narrative of God's covenantal relationship with the patriarchs and serves as a testament to faith, obedience, and divine promise.

Usage: The name יִצְחָק (Jitschak) is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, referring specifically to the patriarch Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah.

Context: Isaac in the Biblical Narrative: Isaac is a central figure in the Genesis narrative, known as the son of promise born to Abraham and Sarah in their old age. His birth is a fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham that he would have a son through Sarah (Genesis 17:19). The name "Isaac" reflects the laughter and joy associated with his birth, as both Abraham and Sarah laughed at the prospect of having a child in their advanced years (Genesis 17:17; 18:12).
Key Events in Isaac's Life:
The Binding of Isaac: One of the most significant events in Isaac's life is the binding (or sacrifice) of Isaac, where God tests Abraham's faith by asking him to offer Isaac as a burnt offering. This event is pivotal in demonstrating Abraham's obedience and God's provision, as a ram is provided as a substitute (Genesis 22:1-14).
Marriage to Rebekah: Isaac marries Rebekah, who becomes the mother of Esau and Jacob. This union is significant in the continuation of the Abrahamic covenant (Genesis 24).
Isaac's Role as Patriarch: Isaac is considered one of the patriarchs of Israel, and his life is marked by God's reaffirmation of the covenant made with Abraham. He is a figure of continuity, maintaining the faith and traditions of his father (Genesis 26:2-5).
Isaac's Legacy: Isaac's legacy is carried on through his son Jacob, who is later named Israel. Isaac's life and experiences are foundational to the identity and history of the Israelite people.
