17By faith Abraham made an offering of Isaac, when he was tested: and he with whom the agreement had been made gave up as an offering the only son of his body,
18Of whom it had been said, From Isaac will your seed take their name:
19Judging that God was able to give life even to the dead; and because of this he did get him back as if from death.
20By faith Isaac, blessing Jacob and Esau, gave news of things to come.
21By faith Jacob gave a blessing to the two sons of Joseph, when he was near to death; and gave God worship, supported by his stick.
22By faith Joseph, when his end was near, said that the children of Israel would go out of Egypt; and gave orders about his bones.
23By faith Moses was kept secretly by his father and mother for three months after his birth, because they saw that he was a fair child; and they had no fear of the king's orders.
