'Descendants' in the Bible

Therefore, [because he] was a prophet and knew that God had sworn to him with an oath to seat {one of his descendants} on his throne,

And he did not give him an inheritance in it--not even a footstep--and he promised to give [it] to him for his possession, and to his descendants after him, {although he did not have} a child.

But God spoke like this: 'His descendants will be foreigners in a foreign land, and they will enslave them and mistreat [them] four hundred years,

In his humiliation justice was taken from him. Who can describe his {descendants}? For his life was taken away from the earth."

From the descendants of this man, according to [his] promise, God brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus.
