² Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,

² In the hope of eternal life, which was made certain before eternal time, by the word of God who is ever true;

⁷⁰ (As he said, by the mouth of his holy prophets, from the earliest times,)

² Much in every way: first of all because the words of God were given to them.

²¹ But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;

²⁶ But is now made clear; and by the writings of the prophets, by the order of the eternal God, the knowledge of it has been given to all the nations, so that they may come under the rule of the faith;

⁶ And now I am here to be judged because of the hope given by God's word to our fathers;

²⁶ Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?

²⁷ And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.

⁴³ To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.
