“And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.”
And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised — the emphasis on patience underscores that Abraham's inheritance of the promise required perseverance through time; faith is not instantaneous possession but patient waiting. Abraham's example models the perseverance that the readers should emulate.
