17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, |
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: |
19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure. |
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. |
21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff. |
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. |
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. |
