So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the removal to Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the removal to Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.

and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

And I say to you, that many will come from the east and the west, and recline at table with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

"I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob"? He is not a God of the dead, but of the living.

toward Abraham and his offspring for ever, as he spoke to our fathers.

the oath which he swore to Abraham our father,

Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance; and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

who was the son of Jacob, who was the son of Isaac, who was the son of Abraham, who was the son of Terah, who was the son of Nahor,

And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo! for eighteen years, to be loosed from this bond on the sabbathday?

There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth there, when ye see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out.

And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to the bosom of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.

And in the underworld he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

And he called and said, Father Abraham, have pity on me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou didst receive thy good things in thy lifetime, and Lazarus in like manner his evil things; but now he is comforted here, and thou art tormented.

But Abraham saith, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

But he said, Nay, father Abraham; but if one should go to them from the dead, they would repent.

And Jesus said to him, This day hath salvation come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;

They answered him, We are Abrahams offspring, and have never been in bondage to any one; how sayest, thou, Ye will be made free?

I know that ye are Abrahams offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word is not received within you.

They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abrahams children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath spoken to you the truth, which I heard from God; this did not Abraham.

The Jews said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he will never taste of death.

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Whom dost thou make thyself?

Your father Abraham exulted that he might see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.

The Jews therefore said to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

Jesus said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, From before Abraham was, I have been.

The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his servant Jesus, whom ye indeed delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him.

Ye are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, "And in thy posterity shall all the families of the earth be blessed."

And he said, Brethren and fathers, hearken. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,

But as the time of the promise drew near, which God solemnly made to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

saying, "I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob." And Moses trembled and durst not behold.

Brethren, sons of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you was the word of this salvation sent forth.

What advantage then shall we say that Abraham our father had as to the flesh?

For if Abraham was accepted as righteous through works, he hath ground of boasting. But he hath no ground of boasting before God.

For what saith the scripture? "Abraham had faith in God, and it was accounted unto him as righteousness."

Doth this blessedness belong to the circumcised alone, or to the uncircumcised also? For we are saying that Abrahams faith was accounted as righteousness.

and that he might be the father of the circumcised, who are not circumcised merely, but who tread in the steps of that faith which our father Abraham had while yet uncircumcised.

For not through the Law was the promise made to Abraham or his offspring that he should be the heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.

Therefore the inheritance was made to depend on faith, that it might be a matter of grace; that the promise might be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is under the Law, but to that also which hath the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

nor because they are descendants of Abraham are they all children; but, "Thy offspring shall be reckoned from Isaac."

I say then, Hath God cast off his people? Far be it I For I myself am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

Even as Abraham "believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness."

Know then that they who have faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

Moreover the Scripture, foreseeing that God was to accept the gentiles as righteous by faith, proclaimed beforehand the glad tidings to Abraham, saying, "In thee shall all nations be blessed."

So then they who have faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

to the end that in Christ Jesus the blessing promised to Abraham might come to the gentiles, that we through faith might receive the Spirit which was promised.

But the promises were made to Abraham and "to his offspring." He doth not say, "and to offsprings," as speaking of many, but, as speaking of one, "and to thy offspring," which is Christ.

for if the inheritance cometh from the Law, it ceaseth to be the consequence of the promise; but to Abraham God gave it by promise.

and if ye belong to Christ, then are ye Abrahams offspring, heirs according to the promise.

For it is written, that Abraham had two sons; the one by the bondwoman, the other by the freewoman.

For surely he doth not help angels, but he helpeth the offspring of Abraham.

For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no greater, he swore by himself,

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him,

to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all, who by interpretation is first King of righteousness, and then also was King of Salem, which is, King of peace,

Consider now how great this man was, to whom even Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils.

And those indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the office of the priesthood have a command to take tithes of the people by the Law, that is, of their brethren, though they have come out of the loins of Abraham;

but he whose descent is not reckoned from them took tithes of Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises.

And so to speak, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes in Abraham;

By faith Abraham, when called, obeyed to go forth to a place which he was afterward to receive for an inheritance, and went forth, not knowing whither he was going.

By faith Abraham, when tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was offering up his onlybegotten son,

Was not Abraham our father accepted as righteous through works, when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.

as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose daughters ye have become, if ye do well, and fear no alarm.
