The three faithful patriarchs were dead, but God’s purpose to resurrect them was so sure to be fulfilled that to him they were as good as alive.
Ketiga patriark yang setia ini sudah meninggal, tetapi maksud - tujuan Allah untuk membangkitkan mereka begitu pasti penggenapannya sehingga bagi - Nya ketiga orang ini seolah - olah hidup.
