Through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed God.

Through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed God.

Gen 22:17, 18

17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring[b] all nations on earth will be blessed,[c] because you have obeyed me.”

Gen 24:1, 34, 35, 60

Abraham was now very old, and the Lord had blessed him in every way.

34 So he said, “I am Abraham’s servant. 35 The Lord has blessed my master abundantly, and he has become wealthy. He has given him sheep and cattle, silver and gold, male and female servants, and camels and donkeys.

60 And they blessed Rebekah and said to her,
“Our sister, may you increase
    to thousands upon thousands;
may your offspring possess
    the cities of their enemies.”
