For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness."

Is this blessedness then on the circumcision only, or on the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.

and a father of circumcision to those not of the circumcision only, but also to those walking by the steps of the faith of our father Abraham during uncircumcision.

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

Therefore it is of faith so that it might be according to grace; for the promise to be made sure to all the seed, not only to that which is of the Law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

nor because they are the seed of Abraham are they all children. But, "In Isaac shall your Seed be called."

I say then, Did not God put away His people? Let it not be said! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

Are they Hebrews? I also! Are they Israelites? I also! Are they the seed of Abraham? I also!

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.

Therefore know that those of faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the nations through faith, preached the gospel before to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all nations be blessed."

So then those of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

so that the blessing of Abraham might be to the nations in Jesus Christ, and that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

And to Abraham and to his Seed the promises were spoken. It does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, "And to your Seed," which is Christ.

For if the inheritance is of Law, it is no more of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by way of promise.

And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise.

For it is written: Abraham had two sons, the one out of the slave-woman, and one out of the free woman.

For truly He did not take the nature of angels, but He took hold of the seed of Abraham.

For when God made promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself,

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him.

To him Abraham also gave a tenth of all. He was first by interpretation king of righteousness, and after that also king of Salem, which is king of peace,

Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.

And truly they who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priest, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the Law, that is, from their brothers, though they come out of the loins of Abraham.

But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

And if I may say so, Levi, also, who receives tithes, paid tithes in Abraham.

By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out into a place which he was afterward going to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he went.

By faith Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. And he who had received the promises offered up his only-begotten son,

Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness, and he was called the friend of God."

as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children you became, doing good and fearing no terror.
