The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him , and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
Saying , I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.
Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
