Rick Phillips, at the BoT Conf. this week, offered this exchange as the paradigmatic message of the OT:

Gen 22:7-8 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.

I have to agree.
