Rom 4:18:
18 Without any other evidence, he believed in hope itself, and thus he became the father of many nations, just like he’d been told: ‘Your descendants will be like the sand and the stars.’[ref]
Heb 11:12:
12 So it was that descendants came from that one man in his old age and they became as numerous as the stars in the sky and uncountable like grains of sand on the beach.[ref]
Rom 4:3:
3 because the scriptures say: ‘Avraham believed in God, so he was considered guiltless.’[ref]
Gal 3:6:
Jam 2:23:
23 This fulfilled the scripture that says, ‘Avraham believed in God and so he was consider to be right with God,[ref] and was called a friend of God.’[ref]
Yob 4:13-14:
13 When troubled by thoughts from dreams in the night,
when people have fallen into deep sleep,
14 I was hit by fear and trembling—
my bones were shaking with fright.
Exo 1:1-14:
1 These are the names of Yisrael’s (Israel) descendants who accompanied Ya’akov (Jacob) when he moved his household to Mitsrayim (Egypt):[ref] 2 Re’uven, Shim’on (Simeon), Levi, Yehudah (Judah), 3 Yisakar (Issachar), Zevulun, Benyamin, 4 Dan, Naftali (Naphtali), Gad, and Asher. 5 At that time, Ya’akov had a total of seventy descendants (including Yosef (Joseph) and his sons who were already in Mitsrayim.)
6 As the years progressed, Yosef and his brothers died—all of that generation, 7 but they’d had many children who went on to have their own children and grandchildren, and so they became a large and powerful group there in Mitsrayim.[ref]
8 Eventually a new king came to power in Mitsrayim who had never known Yosef[ref] 9 and he told his people, “Listen, those descendants of Yisrael (Israel) are becoming more numerous and powerful than us. 10 So, let’s deal wisely with them, in case they continue to multiply. Then if war was to break out, they could easily take the other side and fight against us, and then leave our country.”[ref] 11 Then they appointed overseers to work them in slave gangs, and using them as forced labour, they built the store cities at Piton and Ra’meses for Par’oh (Pharaoh). 12 However, the more they oppressed them, the more they multiplied and spread out, and the more the Mitsrim (Egyptians) came to dread the Israelis. 13 So they made the Israelis work long, hard hours, 14 and they made their lives bitter with the hard slavery. They were forced to make mortar and bricks, as well as all kinds of slave labour in the fields—all the work they had to do was strenuous and tiring.
Acts 7:6:
6 And yet God also told him that his descendants would end up staying in another country where they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
Exo 12:40-41:
40 The descendants of Yisrael (Israel) (also called Ya’akov (Jacob) ) had lived in Mitsrayim for 430 years[ref] 41 to the day, because that very day was when all the various divisions of Yahweh’s people left Mitsrayim.
Acts 7:7:
7 However God promised to punish the nation that enslaved them, and told him that in the end they would leave that place and serve him here in this country.[ref][ref]
Acts 7:5:
5 Avraham hadn’t received any land here as an inheritance, in fact he’d never been near this land and nor did he have any children, yet God promised to give this entire country to him and his descendants.[ref]
