By faith The phrase "By faith" is a recurring theme throughout Hebrews 11, often referred to as the "Faith Chapter." It emphasizes the centrality of faith in the lives of believers. The Greek word for faith, "pistis," implies trust, conviction, and reliance on God. In the context of Hebrews, faith is not merely intellectual assent but an active trust in God's promises, even when they are not yet visible. This faith is the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). It is a reminder that the Christian life is lived by faith, not by sight, and that faith is the means by which believers receive God's promises. the walls of Jericho fell down after the people had marched around them for seven days Parallel Commentaries ...
