Hebrews 11:17-22
17 By faith Abraham, when he was proved, offered up Isaac. And he offered him being his only begotten son that had the promises 18 (of whom it was said: In Isaac shall your seed be called), 19 because he considered that God was able to raise him up again from death. Therefore he received him back, for a figure.
20 In faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph, and bowed himself toward the top of his sceptre.
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, anticipated the exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt, and gave directions concerning his bones.
