[In Abraham our God we find]
So Abraham begat Isaac,...and Isaac begat, &c.
—vii. 8.
In Abraham our God we find
Father of Christ and all mankind,
Whose love deliver'd up His Son
The Victim dear in Isaac shown;
Jacob presents in figure true
The Third proceeding from the Two,
Jacob whose wrestling spirit of grace
Gives birth to all the chosen race.
