Hebrews 11:20
KJV 20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
BBE 20 By faith Isaac, blessing Jacob and Esau, gave news of things to come.
These are m thoughts.
Even thought Isaac wanted to do this wrong his faith still showed in this event when he realized no matter what he couldn’t change God’s plans. Our faith may show up and grow more when we realize God’s plans are going to happen and it is best we follow Him in His plans rather then go around the long detour to His will.

Hebrews 11:21
KJV 21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
BBE 21 By faith Jacob gave a blessing to the two sons of Joseph, when he was near to death; and gave God worship, supported by his stick.
These are my thoughts.
We should be a blessing to others because we pour our lives out to God thru worship and service.

Hebrews 11:22
KJV 22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
BBE 22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, said that the children of Israel would go out of Egypt; and gave orders about his bones.
These are my thoughts.
Joseph had faith that they would be back to the holy land and would take it, for their own.

Hebrews 11:23
KJV 23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
BBE 23 By faith Moses was kept secretly by his father and mother for three months after his birth, because they saw that he was a fair child; and they had no fear of the king's orders.
These are my thoughts.
Sometimes faith is shown because of doing right in spite of orders of leadership.

Hebrews 11:27
KJV 27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
BBE 27 By faith he went out of Egypt, not being turned from his purpose by fear of the wrath of the king; for he kept on his way, as seeing him who is unseen.
These are my thoughts.
Moses feared God more then the Pharaoh and we should have a reverent fear for God more then we fear anyone on this earth.

Hebrews 11:28
KJV 28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
BBE 28 By faith he kept the Passover, and put the sign of the blood on the houses, so that the angel of destruction might not put their oldest sons to death.
These are my thoughts.
The blood covers judgment we as Christians saved by the blood of Jesus and by grace.

Hebrews 11:29 KJV 29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned. BBE 29 By faith they went through the Red Sea as if it had been dry land, though the Egyptians were overcome by the water when they made an attempt to do the same.
These are my thoughts. Because of their faith and God looking after them, they crossed the Red Sea which caused the Egyptians to drown in.
