The apostle's argument rests on the occurrence of the singular (_seed_, sp??a) in Genesis xvii. 8 (LXX.), not the plural (_seeds_, sp??ata); though the plural of the corresponding Hebrew word could not have been used, because it has a different signification.

Grammatical inaccuracy is made the basis of a certain theological interpretation. Those who wish to see a specimen of labored ingenuity unsuccessfully applied to the justification of St. Paul's argument in this pa.s.sage, may consult Tholuck's _Das alte Testament in neuem Testament_, p. 63, etc. Vierte Auflage.
