'Initial' in the Bible

In the initial attack, Jonathan and his armor bearer struck down about twenty men in an area of about half an acre of land.

When the edict was issued, the Israelites freely contributed the initial portion of their grain, wine, olive oil, honey, and all the produce of their fields. They brought a tenth of everything, which added up to a huge amount.

For we have become partners with Christ, if in fact we hold our initial confidence firm until the end.
