Hebrews 6:15-17
Tree of Life Version
[a] 15 And so after waiting patiently, Abraham reached the promise. [b] 16 For people swear by someone greater; and the oath, as confirmation, is an end to all their disputing. 17 In the same way God, determining to point out more clearly to the heirs of the promise the unchanging nature of His purpose, guaranteed it with an oath.
