Acts
King James Version (KJV)


“And he gave him none inheritance in it, 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, when as yet he had no child.”
King James Version (KJV)
7:5 No, not to set his foot on - For the field mentioned, #Ac 7:16|, he did not receive by a Divine donation, but bought it; even thereby showing that he was a stranger in the land.
Ac 7:5 Gave him no inheritance in it. Abraham possessed Canaan only by faith. He looked to the fulfillment of the promise, that it would be the possession of his children when he had neither land nor seed. See Heb 11:8-16.
And he gaue him none inheritance in it, no not so much as to set his foote on: yet he promised that he would giue it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.
