Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 11:8-22

Hebrews 11:8-Song of Solomon : . Passing now from the men of the primeval world, the writer comes to the patriarchs, and especially to Abraham, who stands out in the OT as the chief example of faith. Abraham showed his faith by his obedience to God’ s call, and by his refusal to make a permanent settlement in the land of Canaan, even though it had been promised to him. His heart was set on God’ s ultimate promise of an eternal rest in the heavenly city ( Hebrews 11:10). His wife Sarah shared... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 11:7

By faith Noah, being warned of God; by the same Divine faith Noah, the last example of it in the old world, and the father of the new world, being warned by an immediate revelation from God, Genesis 6:13,Genesis 6:21, largely rehearsed by Moses: so that God’s word is the ground or foundation of Divine faith in all ages of the world. Of things not seen as yet; of things not yet seen, but only by faith in God’s revelation: which things were the perishing of the world by a deluge of waters above... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 11:8

Here begin instances of this Divine faith after the flood from Abraham to Moses’s time, Hebrews 11:8-22. The first is the father of believers, so entitled by God, eminent in the exercise of this grace, of whose ancestry, and their descent from him, these Hebrews did greatly glory. He had an express discovery of the will of God unto him, that he should leave the idolatrous place where he lived, Genesis 11:31; Genesis 12:1-3; compare Joshua 24:2; Acts 7:2,Acts 7:3; and with his family should... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 11:9

By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country; by the same Divine faith he passed from tent to tent, moving it from place to place, as God ordered; so as he rather sojourned than dwelt in any. His journal is legible in Moses’s history, moving from Charran to Shechem, from thence to Beth-el, and then more southward, and thence to Egypt; see Genesis 12:1-20; so that he sojourned in Canaan, and the adjoining countries, which God had covenanted to give for an inheritance to... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 11:10

The reason of this contented pilgrimage was the excellent end of it, the place and state to which it brought him; he did really discern by the Spirit’s work in him, and promise to him, his title to it, and vehemently did desire and long for, and yet patiently waited for, a better place and state than this earthly; and was daily making his approaches to it, Romans 8:19; 2 Corinthians 5:1,2 Corinthians 5:2,2 Corinthians 5:8,2 Corinthians 5:9. For he looked for a city which hath foundations: πολις... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 11:11

Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed; by the same Divine faith in Abraham and Sarah was brought forth the child of promise. For though the instance be expressly in Sarah, yet it is inclusive of Abraham also, who was eminent for his faith in this thing, acquiring an eminent title by it, even of the Father of believers, as the apostle declareth, Romans 4:17-22, and therefore jointly to be considered with Sarah. She, who first through unbelief laughed at the promise,... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 11:7-12

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESHebrews 11:7. Righteousness which is by faith.—Which is according to faith. “Faith in this writer never becomes the same as mystic oneness with Christ, but means general belief in the unseen. And ‘righteousness’ is not ‘justification,’ but faith manifested by obedience. Throughout this chapter righteousness is the human condition which faith produces, not the Divine gift which faith receives” (Farrar).MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Hebrews 11:7-12Expressions of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 11:1-7

Hebrews 11:1-7 Abel, Enoch, Noah. Before the flood and the Abrahamic covenant God had a people on earth who lived by faith. Abel, the first martyr, Enoch, the seventh from Adam, and Noah, the preacher of righteousness, are the three witnesses of the period whose lives are recorded. I. Abel, the first man who had to descend into the grave, was carried through it on the arms of redeeming love. Abel, believing the word, approached God through the bitter sacrifice. Every one who believes in Jesus... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 11:8

Hebrews 11:8 The Father of Missionaries. He went out, as many had gone out before him, as many would go out after him. He moves onwards and onwards towards the setting sun, till at length all progress is stopped by the sea barrier which parts him from the unknown worlds beyond. There, from those bare mountain heights, he would look down on the purple ocean, with its boundless expanse and its ceaseless turmoil, the ocean, terrible even to his late descendants. What must have been his thoughts as... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 11:8-22

Hebrews 11:8-22 The Patriarchs. I. The period of the patriarchs has a very peaceful and lovely character. God appeared and spoke to them. There was as yet no law. What is the real peculiarity of the patriarchal life? What else but faith; that they lived before and with God, waiting for the promise, the heavenly country? They were not worldly; they were other-worldly. God was a very present God to them; while the future, the tabernacle of God on earth with man, was their constant hope. II.... read more
