That’s all true. And the two patriarchs’ genetic lineage does not grant the line of Ishmael any right to abolish the inheritance of the line of Isaac.

And it was Isaac that Abraham took to the Altar for Sacrifice. And it pleased God.

Imagine for a moment if Abraham had taken Ishmael to the mountain. Would God have offered a ram? Would God have carried through to Isaac's descendents had Abraham offered up Ishmael? It would have been seen in God's eyes as an abomination of desolation.
