Genesis 5
Genesis 5 contains the genealogy of Adam to Noah (Excluding Shem, Ham, and Japheth). This contains Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch,
Methuselah, Lamech, and Noah. If you look at the meaning of those names
Adam - Man (Note: First man)
Seth - Appointed (Note: Israel descends from him)
Enos - Mortal
Cainan - Sorrow
Mahlaleel - The blessed God
Jared - Shall come down
Enoch - Teaching
Methuselah - His death shall bring
(Note:Methuselah died in the same year the flood happened)
Lamech - The despairing
Noah - Rest/Comfort (Note: "Rest"is often tied to Salvation in the Bible)

Put that together: Man appointed
moral sorrow. The blessed God
shall came down teaching his
death shall bring the despairing
comfort/rest.
Meaning, man is bound to be
mortal and have sorrow, and God
will come down teaching people
his death will bring the sorrowful
salvation (See what I said about
Noah).
Genesis 22:
22:1-2 - "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. 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."
1) It's not that Isaac was his only
Son, but he was the son of God's
covenant, and was the only Son
with Abraham at the time.
Anyways, Abraham is going to give
up his "only" Son . It's in the same
way Adam was the "son of God",
but Jesus was the only "Begotten"
Son of God.
2) Moriah is where Jerusalem was
in the future.
Part of verse 3 - "And Abraham
rose up early in the morning, and
saddled his ass"
When Jesus entered Jerusalem
(Again, Moriah is where Jerusalem
was to be), he was riding an Ass/
Donkey.
Verse 4 - "Then on the third day
Abraham lifted up his eyes, and
saw the place afar off."
Jesus died in Jerusalem (Moriah),
and rose the third day.
Verse 5 - "And Abraham said unto
his young men, Abide ye here with
the ass; and I and the lad will go
yonder and worship, and come
again to you."
Abraham, knowing full well what
he was going to do to Isaac,
implied that he was going to come
back with Isaac. He was either
lying (He was a godly man, though)
, wasn't actually going to do it
(Obviously not true, look at verse
10), or thought he was going to rise
from the dead (Like Jesus actually
did, in the same area Abraham
was at at the time)
Verse 8 - "And Abraham said, My
son, God will provide himself a
lamb for a burnt offering: so they
went both of them together."
Jesus is the Lamb of God.
