Hebrews 11:27

---

← Hebrews 11:26	Hebrews 11:27 (KJV)	Hebrews 11:28 →
Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.	By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.	Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

• G1063 — γάρ (gár, gar): for — a primary particle; properly, assigning a reason (used in argument, explanation or intensification; often with other particles):--and, as, because (that), but, even, for, indeed, no doubt, seeing, then, therefore, verily, what, why, yet.
