Acts 7:3

and said to him, ‘Get out of your land, and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’^*

[translations][forum][edit][history]

Τότε ἐξελθὼν ἐκ γῆς Χαλδαίων κατῴκησεν ἐν Χαρράν · κἀκεῖθεν , μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ , μετῴκισεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν γῆν ταύτην εἰς ἣν ὑμεῖς νῦν κατοικεῖτε ·

Acts 7:4

Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land, where you are now living.

[translations][forum][edit][history]

καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ κληρονομίαν ἐν αὐτῇ , οὐδὲ βῆμα ποδός · καὶ ἐπηγγείλατο δοῦναι αὐτῷ εἰς κατάσχεσιν αὐτήν , καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτόν , οὐκ ὄντος αὐτῷ τέκνου .

Acts 7:5

He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession,^[a] and to his seed after him, when he still had no child.

———

^a Gr. εἰς κατάσχεσιν. Rather than for a possession, could this instead mean by conquest or seizure? Cf. κατέχω in Matthew 21:38: Come, let's kill him and seize [κατάσχωμεν] his inheritance. God's promise to childless Abraham would then be in a manner that was itself a promise of descendants. Even by the time of Jacob and Joseph, Abraham's descendants only numbered seventy-five (7:14), so he was not strong enough to take the land himself. His descendants had to first grow and multiply (7:17).
