Genesis 22:18


And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.


Geneva Bible - (*) And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou
hast obeyed my voice.
(*) Genesis 12:3; Genesis 18:18; Acts 3:25; Galatians 3:8 .




Note:  In blessing all the nations of the earth because of Abraham, we have a two-pronged prophecy:  One, that the seed of Abraham (via Isaac, Jacob who is Israel), all nation's are blessed because of God's peculiar relationship with Israel, and two, because out of Israel via the tribe of Judah will come forth God's Son, Jesus Christ, by whom all the nation's of the earth and it's peoples are reconciled to God IF they believe on Him.
