Abraham was gonna off his son for Jahweh.
Jahweh told him "Hold up there Abe!"
Abe did, and his son was spared, and hence he found a ram caught in a thicket and sacrificed the ram instead.
that was symbolic of the end of human sacrifice to appease the montheistic god jahweh.
Jesus, with his personal sacrifice, was symbolic of the end of ANY and all sacrifice in the name of jahweh.
the ultimate sacrifice having been paid, in the blood of god's son, and all.
