'Forefather' in the Bible

He will be great and eminent and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David;

Live lives which shall prove your change of heart; and do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our forefather,' for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stones.
