Genesis 22:8
KJV
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
NIV
Abraham answered, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together.
The KJV rendition suggests that God will provide Himself a lamb, foreshadowing the divine sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who is described as “God manifest in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16, KJV). In contrast, the other translations obscure this reference to Christ’s deity.
