(11: 8-13) By faith Abraham obeyed the order to leave

[8] By faith Abraham, called by God, obeyed the order of leave for a country that would receive an inheritance, and left not knowing where he went. [9] The faith was to stay the promised land, which still was not his. They lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, which benefited the same promise. [10] As expected the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God. [11] By faith could have a child despite her advanced age and Sarah was too sterile, it was confident that it promised. [12] So this man alone and almost helpless, came descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and innumerable as the grains of sand on the seashore. [13] all died as believers. They had achieved what was promised, but they had seen and recognized from a distance, strange confession y peregrinos en la tierra.

(C.I.C 59) Para reunir a la humanidad dispersa, Dios elige a Abraham llamándolo "fuera de su tierra, de su patria y de su casa" (Gn 12,1), para hacer de él "Abraham", es decir, "el padre de una multitud de naciones" (Gn 17,5): "En ti serán benditas todas las naciones de la tierra" (Gn 12,3; cf. Gal 3,8). (C.I.C 146) Abraham realiza así la definición de la fe dada por la carta a los Hebreos: "La fe es garantía de lo que se espera; la prueba de las realidades que no se ven" (Hb 11,1). "Creyó Abraham en Dios y le fue reputado as righteousness "(Rom 4.3, cf. Gn 15.6). And so, fortified by his faith, Abraham fu echo" father of all believers "(Rom 4,11.18, cf. Gn 15:15). (CCC 147) The Old Testament is rich in witnesses to this faith. The letter to the Hebrews proclaims the praise of the exemplary faith by the ancients "were praised" (Heb 11.2. 39). However, " God had foreseen something better ": the grace of believing in His Son Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith" (Heb 11.40, 12.2).
