Seven Altars Built By The Patriarchs

Seven Altars Built By The Patriarchs:

Between the Patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob), seven altars were built:

Abraham - Genesis 12:7, 8; 13:18; 22:9

Genesis 12:7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.

Genesis 12:8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.

Genesis 13:18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.

Genesis 22:9 And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

Isaac - Genesis 26:25

Genesis 26:25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants digged a well.

Jacob - Genesis 33:20; 35:7

Genesis 33:20 And he erected there an altar, and called it Elelohe-Israel.

Genesis 35:7 And he built there an altar, and called the place Elbethel: because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.

And he had in his hand a little book open:  6. and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,  7. And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth:  and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
