20. By faith, concerning coming things, Isaac did bless Jacob and Esau;
21. by faith Jacob dying--each of the sons of Joseph did bless, and did bow down upon the top of his staff;
22. by faith, Joseph dying, concerning the outgoing of the sons of Israel did make mention, and concerning his bones did give command.
23. By faith Moses, having been born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child comely, and were not afraid of the decree of the king;
24. by faith Moses, having become great, did refuse to be called a son of the daughter of Pharaoh,
