Exodus 4:22

"When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt."

"Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;"

"To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,"

"They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn."

"Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead."

"Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting. our redeemer...: or, our redeemer from everlasting is thy name"

"But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand."

"And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."

"Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures."
