'Fathers' in the Bible

Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.”

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever.”

For this reason Moses has given you circumcision (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.
