# foreseeing
# The scripture, foreseeing ..., preached the gospel
Because God made the promise to Abraham and they wrote it down before the promise came through Christ, the scripture is like someone who knows the future before it happens. Alternate translation: "predicted" or "saw before it happened" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]])
Because God's promise to Abraham was written in the scripture before Christ fulfilled the promise, the scripture is like someone who knows the future before it happens and who preaches the gospel. Alternate translation: "In the scripture, God showed before it happened ..., and he presented the gospel" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]])
# In you
"Because of what you have done" or "Because I have blessed you." The word "you" refers to Abraham and is singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
The word "you" refers to Abraham. Ultimately God would bless the nations through one of Abraham's descendants. Alternate tranlation: "Because of you" or "Through you"
# all the nations
"all the people-groups in the world." God was emphasizing that he was not favoring only the Jewish people, his chosen group. His plan of salvation was for both Jews and non-Jews.
