From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Isaac       laughter. (1) Israel, or the kingdom of the ten tribes (Amos       7:9, 16).                (2.) The only son of Abraham by Sarah. He was the longest       lived of the three patriarchs (Gen. 21:1-3). He was circumcised       when eight days old (4-7); and when he was probably two years       old a great feast was held in connection with his being weaned.                The next memorable event in his life is that connected with       the command of God given to Abraham to offer him up as a       sacrifice on a mountain in the land of Moriah (Gen. 22). (See {ABRAHAM}.) When he was forty years of age Rebekah was       chosen for his wife (Gen. 24). After the death and burial of his       father he took up his residence at Beer-lahai-roi (25:7-11),       where his two sons, Esau and Jacob, were born (21-26), the       former of whom seems to have been his favourite son (27,28).                In consequence of a famine (Gen. 26:1) Isaac went to Gerar,       where he practised deception as to his relation to Rebekah,       imitating the conduct of his father in Egypt (12:12-20) and in       Gerar (20:2). The Philistine king rebuked him for his       prevarication.                After sojourning for some time in the land of the Philistines,       he returned to Beersheba, where God gave him fresh assurance of       covenant blessing, and where Abimelech entered into a covenant       of peace with him.                The next chief event in his life was the blessing of his sons       (Gen. 27:1). He died at Mamre, "being old and full of days"       (35:27-29), one hundred and eighty years old, and was buried in       the cave of Machpelah.                In the New Testament reference is made to his having been       "offered up" by his father (Heb. 11:17; James 2:21), and to his       blessing his sons (Heb. 11:20). As the child of promise, he is       contrasted with Ishmael (Rom. 9:7, 10; Gal. 4:28; Heb. 11:18).                Isaac is "at once a counterpart of his father in simple       devoutness and purity of life, and a contrast in his passive       weakness of character, which in part, at least, may have sprung       from his relations to his mother and wife. After the expulsion       of Ishmael and Hagar, Isaac had no competitor, and grew up in       the shade of Sarah's tent, moulded into feminine softness by       habitual submission to her strong, loving will." His life was so       quiet and uneventful that it was spent "within the circle of a       few miles; so guileless that he let Jacob overreach him rather       than disbelieve his assurance; so tender that his mother's death       was the poignant sorrow of years; so patient and gentle that       peace with his neighbours was dearer than even such a coveted       possession as a well of living water dug by his own men; so       grandly obedient that he put his life at his father's disposal;       so firm in his reliance on God that his greatest concern through       life was to honour the divine promise given to his race.",       Geikie's Hours, etc.
