In the second son theme, the second son receives the inheritance that the first son loses. Isaac is literally a second son, and he is a second son by way of riddle.
Isaac tells us something about Christ as the second Adam that we did not yet see in Abraham. Isaac is the third 'second' in Matthews list of records.
The keys to teaching (the kingdom of heaven) are the symbols of the cross. For Isaac, the obvious one is when he is placed on the altar as the sacrifice. Prior to that moment he represents the first son who dies desolate. The fact that he didn't die, is a symbol of his resurrection. After that moment he is he second son who is fruitful and receives the inheritance.
