NASB | Genesis 50:24 Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up from this land to the land which He promised on oath to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 50:24 Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up out of this land to the land which He promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob [to give you]." |
Bible Question: For your consideration: Why did God refer to Himself as the 'God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob'? Why didn't He simply say, 'the God of Jacob'? |
Bible Answer: I personally believe that He referenced Abraham, Issac and Jacob to show that He is stable or that he has a tract record of doing what He says He is going to do. So,God would reference them so a person could back and read through biblical history that He never changed or wavered in his promises to these men in their times. Therefore He would not waver with us....just my thoughts.... |
