Last Monday, January 17, we celebrate a national holiday in honor of the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, a tireless fighter for the civil rights of African Americans who was assassinated in 1968. ... The date is commemorated on the third Monday of January, a date close to January 15, the date of his birth in 1929. Designed to honor Martin Luther King Jr., MLK Day became a federal holiday in 1983. It falls on the third Monday of every January. (New Hampshire was the last state to adopt it as a paid state holiday in 1999, replacing the state's optional Civil Rights Day.)2

Answer:

One day in the Middle East about four thousand years ago, an elderly but still rather astonishingly spry gentleman took his son for a walk up a hill. The young man carried on his back some wood that his father had told him they would use at the top to make an altar, upon which they would then perform the ritual sacrifice of a burnt offering. Unbeknownst to the son, however, the father had another sort of sacrifice in mind altogether. Abraham, the father, had been commanded, by the God he worshipped as supreme above all others, to sacrifice the young man himself, his beloved and only legitimate son, Isaac.
