Genesis 9:23

Genesis 19:34

34 On the following day, the firstborn said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father; let us make him drink wine tonight also; then you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve our family through our father."

Genesis 19:35

35 So they made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger arose and lay with him; and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.

Genesis 24:23

23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room for us to lodge in your father's house?"

Genesis 24:38

38 but you shall go to my father's house and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son.'

Genesis 24:40

Genesis 26:15

15 Now all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped up by filling them with earth.

Genesis 26:18

Genesis 26:24

24 The LORD appeared to him the same night and said, "I am the God of your father Abraham; Do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you, and multiply your descendants, For the sake of My servant Abraham."

Genesis 27:6

Genesis 27:9

Genesis 27:10

10 "Then you shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death."

Genesis 27:12

12 "Perhaps my father will feel me, then I will be as a deceiver in his sight, and I will bring upon myself a curse and not a blessing."

Genesis 27:14

14 So he went and got them, and brought them to his mother; and his mother made savory food such as his father loved.

Genesis 27:18

18 Then he came to his father and said, "My father." And he said, "Here I am. Who are you, my son?"

Genesis 27:19

19 Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn; I have done as you told me. Get up, please, sit and eat of my game, that you may bless me."

Genesis 27:22

22 So Jacob came close to Isaac his father, and he felt him and said, "The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau."

Genesis 27:26

26 Then his father Isaac said to him, "Please come close and kiss me, my son."

Genesis 27:30

30 Now it came about, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had hardly gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

Genesis 27:31

31 Then he also made savory food, and brought it to his father; and he said to his father, "Let my father arise and eat of his son's game, that you may bless me."

Genesis 27:32

32 Isaac his father said to him, "Who are you?" And he said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."

Genesis 27:34

34 When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried out with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, "Bless me, even me also, O my father!"

Genesis 27:38

38 Esau said to his father, "Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, O my father." So Esau lifted his voice and wept.

Genesis 27:39

39 Then Isaac his father answered and said to him, "Behold, away from the fertility of the earth shall be your dwelling, And away from the dew of heaven from above.

Genesis 27:41

41 So Esau bore a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob."

Genesis 28:2

2 "Arise, go to Paddan-aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and from there take to yourself a wife from the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

Genesis 28:7

7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and had gone to Paddan-aram.

Genesis 28:8

8 So Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan displeased his father Isaac;

Genesis 28:13

13 And behold, the LORD stood above it and said, "I am the LORD , the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it to you and to your descendants.

Genesis 28:21

21 and I return to my father's house in safety, then the LORD will be my God.

Genesis 29:9

9 While he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.

Genesis 29:12

12 Jacob told Rachel that he was a relative of her father and that he was Rebekah's son, and she ran and told her father.

Genesis 31:1

1 Now Jacob heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, "Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and from what belonged to our father he has made all this wealth."

Genesis 31:3

3 Then the LORD said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be with you."

Genesis 31:5

5 and said to them, "I see your father's attitude, that it is not friendly toward me as formerly, but the God of my father has been with me.

Genesis 31:6

6 "You know that I have served your father with all my strength.

Genesis 31:7

7 "Yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times; however, God did not allow him to hurt me.

Genesis 31:9

9 "Thus God has taken away your father's livestock and given them to me.

Genesis 31:14

14 Rachel and Leah said to him, "Do we still have any portion or inheritance in our father's house?

Genesis 31:16

16 "Surely all the wealth which God has taken away from our father belongs to us and our children; now then, do whatever God has said to you."

Genesis 31:18

18 and he drove away all his livestock and all his property which he had gathered, his acquired livestock which he had gathered in Paddan-aram, to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.

Genesis 31:19

19 When Laban had gone to shear his flock, then Rachel stole the household idols that were her father's.

Genesis 31:29

29 "It is in my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, 'Be careful not to speak either good or bad to Jacob.'

Genesis 31:30

30 "Now you have indeed gone away because you longed greatly for your father's house; but why did you steal my gods?"

Genesis 31:35

35 She said to her father, "Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the manner of women is upon me." So he searched but did not find the household idols.

Genesis 31:42

42 "If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had not been for me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, so He rendered judgment last night."

Genesis 31:53

53 "The God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us." So Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.

Genesis 32:9

9 Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O LORD , who said to me, 'Return to your country and to your relatives, and I will prosper you,'

Genesis 33:19

19 He bought the piece of land where he had pitched his tent from the hand of the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for one hundred pieces of money.

Genesis 34:4

4 So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, "Get me this young girl for a wife."

Genesis 34:6

6 Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.

Genesis 34:11

11 Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, "If I find favor in your sight, then I will give whatever you say to me.

Genesis 34:13

13 But Jacob's sons answered Shechem and his father Hamor with deceit, because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

Genesis 34:19

19 The young man did not delay to do the thing, because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was more respected than all the household of his father.

Genesis 35:18

18 It came about as her soul was departing (for she died ), that she named him Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

Genesis 35:22

22 It came about while Israel was dwelling in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now there were twelve sons of Jacob -

Genesis 35:27

27 Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre of Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron ), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.

Genesis 36:9

9 These then are the records of the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir.

Genesis 36:24

24 These are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah -he is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness when he was pasturing the donkeys of his father Zibeon.

Genesis 36:43

43 chief Magdiel, chief Iram. These are the chiefs of Edom (that is, Esau, the father of the Edomites ), according to their habitations in the land of their possession.

Genesis 37:1

1 Now Jacob lived in the land where his father had sojourned, in the land of Canaan.

Genesis 37:2

2 These are the records of the generations of Jacob. Joseph, when seventeen years of age, was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth, along with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought back a bad report about them to their father.

Genesis 37:4

4 His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers; and so they hated him and could not speak to him on friendly terms.

Genesis 37:10

10 He related it to his father and to his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, "What is this dream that you have had? Shall I and your mother and your brothers actually come to bow ourselves down before you to the ground?"

Genesis 37:11

11 His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the saying in mind.

Genesis 37:12

12 Then his brothers went to pasture their father's flock in Shechem.

Genesis 37:22

22 Reuben further said to them, "Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but do not lay hands on him"-that he might rescue him out of their hands, to restore him to his father.

Genesis 37:32

32 and they sent the varicolored tunic and brought it to their father and said, "We found this; please examine it to see whether it is your son's tunic or not."

Genesis 37:35

35 Then all his sons and all his daughters arose to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. And he said, "Surely I will go down to Sheol in mourning for my son." So his father wept for him.

Genesis 38:11

11 Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, "Remain a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up"; for he thought, "I am afraid that he too may die like his brothers." So Tamar went and lived in her father's house.

Genesis 41:51

51 Joseph named the firstborn Manasseh, "For," he said, "God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father's household."

Genesis 42:13

13 But they said, "Your servants are twelve brothers in all, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is with our father today, and one is no longer alive."

Genesis 42:29

29 When they came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had happened to them, saying,

Genesis 42:32

32 'We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no longer alive, and the youngest is with our father today in the land of Canaan.'

Genesis 42:35

35 Now it came about as they were emptying their sacks, that behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were dismayed.

Genesis 42:36

36 Their father Jacob said to them, "You have bereaved me of my children: Joseph is no more, and Simeon is no more, and you would take Benjamin; all these things are against me."

Genesis 42:37

37 Then Reuben spoke to his father, saying, "You may put my two sons to death if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my care, and I will return him to you."

Genesis 43:2

2 So it came about when they had finished eating the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, "Go back, buy us a little food."

Genesis 43:7

7 But they said, "The man questioned particularly about us and our relatives, saying, 'Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?' So we answered his questions. Could we possibly know that he would say, 'Bring your brother down '?"

Genesis 43:8

8 Judah said to his father Israel, "Send the lad with me and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, we as well as you and our little ones.

Genesis 43:11

11 Then their father Israel said to them, "If it must be so, then do this: take some of the best products of the land in your bags, and carry down to the man as a present, a little balm and a little honey, aromatic gum and myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds.

Genesis 43:23

23 He said, "Be at ease, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; I had your money." Then he brought Simeon out to them.

Genesis 43:27

27 Then he asked them about their welfare, and said, "Is your old father well, of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?"

Genesis 43:28

28 They said, "Your servant our father is well; he is still alive." They bowed down in homage.

Genesis 44:17

17 But he said, "Far be it from me to do this. The man in whose possession the cup has been found, he shall be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father."

Genesis 44:19

19 "My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Have you a father or a brother?'

Genesis 44:20

20 "We said to my lord , 'We have an old father and a little child of his old age. Now his brother is dead, so he alone is left of his mother, and his father loves him.'

Genesis 44:22

22 "But we said to my lord , 'The lad cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'

Genesis 44:24

24 "Thus it came about when we went up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord .

Genesis 44:25

25 "Our father said, 'Go back, buy us a little food.'

Genesis 44:27

27 "Your servant my father said to us, 'You know that my wife bore me two sons;

Genesis 44:30

30 "Now, therefore, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us, since his life is bound up in the lad's life,

Genesis 44:31

31 when he sees that the lad is not with us, he will die. Thus your servants will bring the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow.

Genesis 44:32

32 "For your servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, 'If I do not bring him back to you, then let me bear the blame before my father forever .'

Genesis 44:34

34 "For how shall I go up to my father if the lad is not with me-for fear that I see the evil that would overtake my father?"

Genesis 45:3

3 Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?" But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed at his presence.

Genesis 45:8

8 "Now, therefore, it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh and lord of all his household and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

Genesis 45:9

9 "Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, 'Thus says your son Joseph, "God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not delay.

Genesis 45:13

13 "Now you must tell my father of all my splendor in Egypt, and all that you have seen; and you must hurry and bring my father down here."

Genesis 45:18

18 and take your father and your households and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt and you will eat the fat of the land.'

Genesis 45:19

19 "Now you are ordered, 'Do this: take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and bring your father and come.

Genesis 45:23

23 To his father he sent as follows: ten donkeys loaded with the best things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and sustenance for his father on the journey.

Genesis 45:25

25 Then they went up from Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan to their father Jacob.

Genesis 45:27

27 When they told him all the words of Joseph that he had spoken to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.

Genesis 46:1

1 So Israel set out with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

Genesis 46:3

3 He said, "I am God, the God of your father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you a great nation there.

Genesis 46:5

5 Then Jacob arose from Beersheba; and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob and their little ones and their wives in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

Genesis 46:29

29 Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel; as soon as he appeared before him, he fell on his neck and wept on his neck a long time.

Genesis 46:31

31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, "I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and will say to him, 'My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me;

Genesis 46:34

34 you shall say, 'Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,' that you may live in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is loathsome to the Egyptians."

Genesis 47:1

1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, "My father and my brothers and their flocks and their herds and all that they have, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen."

Genesis 47:3

3 Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" So they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we and our fathers."

Genesis 47:5

5 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Your father and your brothers have come to you.

Genesis 47:6

6 "The land of Egypt is at your disposal; settle your father and your brothers in the best of the land, let them live in the land of Goshen; and if you know any capable men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock."

Genesis 47:7

7 Then Joseph brought his father Jacob and presented him to Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

Genesis 47:9

9 So Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The years of my sojourning are one hundred and thirty; few and unpleasant have been the years of my life, nor have they attained the years that my fathers lived during the days of their sojourning."

Genesis 47:11

11 So Joseph settled his father and his brothers and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had ordered.

Genesis 47:12

12 Joseph provided his father and his brothers and all his father's household with food, according to their little ones.

Genesis 47:30

30 but when I lie down with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial place." And he said, "I will do as you have said."

Genesis 48:1

1 Now it came about after these things that Joseph was told, "Behold, your father is sick." So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim with him.

Genesis 48:9
