'Descendants' in the Bible

Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn an oath to him to seat one of his descendants on his throne.

He didn’t give him an inheritance in it, not even a foot of ground, but He promised to give it to him as a possession, and to his descendants after him, even though he was childless.

God spoke in this way:His descendants would be strangersin a foreign country,and they would enslaveand oppress them 400 years.

“From this man’s descendants, according to the promise, God brought the Savior, Jesus, to Israel.
