21 Was not our father {patēr} Abraham (father of many) justified (rendered innocent) by what he did when he offered his son Isaac (he will laugh) on the altar?

22 You see that his faith was working with his actions (acts), and his faith was perfected by what he did.

23 And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham (father of many) believed (had faith) God {Theō}, and it was credited to him as righteousness ,” and he was called a friend of God .

24 As you⁺ can see, a man is justified by his deeds (acts) and not by faith alone.
