The story of God asking Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac is far from palatable in any kind of modern society (or even not so modern!). This is not a felt-board story. Perhaps we misunderstand the principle that God was setting out through this story. Child-sacrifice was not new, it was not an uncommon practice to sacrifice your child to a god or a deity. When God asks Abraham to do this, he is testing his faith and devotion but most importantly he is setting up a (very dramatic!) way to say in the Jewish faith, this abhorrent practice has no place. God is always setting up a different story than the one in the world around us. Reference the sacrifice of Jesus.
