No. God undoubtedly knew exactly what He was doing.
God commanded Abraham to sacrifice Isaac. He then commanded Abraham
not to do so. God did not make a mistake.

Then God knew in advance what Abraham would do and accounted for it.
But He still commanded the sacrifice of Isaac, and then commanded NOT
the sacrifice.

But they did, whether they needed to or not. (And who are YOU to say

Correct.

OK

That is because it was not a mistake or a change of mind. It was a
change of circumstance.
ALL He did was instruct His Disciples to go to the

Bullshit. You speak LIES fed to you by your Father the Prince of
Lies.

Modern definitions of "race" have nothing to do with Hebrew
definitions of "nations"

But since the disciples did not stay glued together, the various
disciples went to different nations and preached to different people.
Under you interpretation they would have all needed to join themselves
at the hip and ALL of them go EVERYWHERE.
This of course is nonsense.

Only in your imagination.
I choose to believe what the Holy Bible states and not the words of a
nincompoop speaking the LIES of his father the Prince of Lies.

Where is the rest of what they understood recorded?

I do not accept your parenthetical misstatements of the Bible. They
are LIES fed to you by the Prince of Lies.
