Memento Mori

A biblical scene on a headstone from Elsdon
According to the Hebrew Bible, God commands Abraham to offer his son Isaac as a sacrifice.[1] After Isaac is bound to an altar, a messenger from God stops Abraham before he can complete the sacrifice, saying, “now I know you fear God”. Abraham looks up and sees a ram and sacrifices it instead of Isaac. – Wikipedia
