Hebrews 11:17-22

By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac. He had received the promises, yet he was ready to offer up his only son. God had told him, “ Through Isaac descendants will carry on your name ,” and he reasoned that God could even raise him from the dead, and in a sense he received him back from there. By faith also Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning the future. By faith Jacob, as he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshiped as he leaned on his staff . By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, mentioned the exodus of the sons of Israel and gave instructions about his burial.
