Answer:

ABRAHAM DIDN’T THINK ISAAC WOULD DIE!

When they reached the mountain, Abraham told his servant, “Stay here with the donkey; I and the boy will go over there and worship and come again to you” . The text is careful to include both Abraham and Isaac in the return journey.

Or consider Isaac’s question about where the lamb for the sacrifice would come from. Abraham responds, “God himself will provide the lamb”. It seems Abraham prepared himself to do what God asked, but he expected something else to happen.

The author of the book of Hebrews gives us insight to Abraham’s thoughts. It says, “He considered that God was able even to raise [Isaac] from the dead” Instead of a resurrection, Abraham was spared the sacrifice.
