V. 10.— For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God This was not grievous to him, for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. Here we are taught that Abraham’ s faith looked beyond this earth. This is more expressly stated, ver. 16, where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are said to desire a better country, even an heavenly, of which they saw only a shadow in the land of promise. The same language is employed, chap. 12:22, where we read of the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and Jerusalem that is above. Galatians 4:26.
