Abraham at Moriah

Receives a command that contradicts the prior promise; obeys early in the morning; trusts the LORD will provide; ram caught in thicket; promise reaffirmed. Failure mode: None at Moriah; earlier failure in Hagar shortcut. Restoration path: Obey while you still hold the contradiction; let the LORD provide. Markers: command contradicts prior promise; obeys without delay; carries the means of sacrifice himself; trusts provision will come; blessing follows the test
