As we approach the end of the “Hall of Faith” chapter, we find a list of some other heroes of faith from the Old Testament. Their accomplishments are summarized, but not listed specifically; nonetheless, they are examples of great faith. Moreover, we find a reference to other characters about which it is said that the “world was not worthy” of them. These great men and women of faith, who were NOT delivered from the persecutions here in a timely sense, chose faith over earthly deliverance. But nonetheless, they were delivered into the world to come! Join us as we begin looking today at the last part of Hebrews 11.
