CCEL Footnote 3511 (In-Text, Margin)

... no, not so much as to set his foot on; yet He promised that He would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him. … And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land, and should be brought into bondage, and should be evil-entreated four hundred years; and the nation whom they shall serve will I judge, says the Lord. And after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place. And He gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham] begat Isaac.”[Acts 7:2-8] And the rest of his words announce the same God, who was with Joseph and with the patriarchs, and who spake with Moses.
