There was a famine in the land where Isaac dwelled.
26:2 And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into
Egypt; dwell in The land which I Shall tell thee of:
26:3 SojOurn in this land, andI will be WIth thee, anD will bless
thee; for unto thee, and untoThy seed, I will give All these
countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware Unto
Abraham thy father;
26:4 And I will make thy seed to multiply As the stars of heaven,
and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy
seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my
commandments, my statutes, andmy laws.
What is with this family Isaac lies about Rebecca being his sister, same as his father did with his mother.
26:24 And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, And said, I am
the GOd of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee,
and will bless thee, and multipy thy seed for My servant
Abraham's sake.

Genesis Chapter 22
This is where God ask the most of Abraham.
22:1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt
Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here
I am.
22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou
lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him
there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I
will tell thee of.
22:11 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and
said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
22:12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou
any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God,
seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
22:15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven
the second time,
22:16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because
thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son,
thine only son:
22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will
multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand
which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the
gate of his enemies;
22:18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
because thou hast obeyed my voice.

this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee
from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to
touch her.

and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou
restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou,
and all that are thine.
