Q

Why is it crucial that we think these 2 expressions together? How do we know we are getting the greatness of Abraham?

A

If you just saw it through the religious side you would be sugar coating it and you need to see the ethical side. If you just saw the ethical side then you would need to see the religious side and that God asked him to make this sacrifice. You know you are getting the greatness of Abraham if you experience anguish.
