OET interlinear HEB 11:20

uW Translation Notes:

The author refers to a story about how Isaac blessed his twin sons Jacob and Esau. In the story, Jacob pretends to be Esau and receives the blessing that Isaac intended for Esau. When Esau comes to receive his blessing, Isaac realizes that Jacob stole the blessing from Esau. He then gives Esau a different blessing. You can read about Isaac blessing his sons in [Genesis 27:1–40](../../gen/27/01.md). You might want to include this information in a footnote.

περὶ μελλόντων

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πίστει καί περί μελλόντων εὐλόγησεν Ἰσαάκ τόν Ἰακώβ καί τόν Ἠσαῦ)

The phrase coming things refers to what was going to happen to both Jacob and Esau and thus also indicates the contents of the blessings given to each son. If it would be helpful in your language, you could clarify that coming things refers to future events. Alternate translation: [concerning coming events] or [concerning what would later happen]
