Yes, the eleventh chapter of the book of Hebrews has often been called the biblical “Hall of Faith.” It contains references to those heroes of the faith who accomplished mighty acts and endured through great trials because of their confidence in God’s promises, power and love.
The Forerunner Commentary explains Hebrews 11:1 as follows: In the phrase “faith is the substance of things hoped for,” the writer of Hebrews is not really defining what faith is, but rather he is showing what faith does in an operative sense: Faith undergirds what we hope for. Substance means “that which stands under.” Faith is the foundation for what we hope, the foundation for our relationship with God and everything that it implies within His purpose. Faith is the very beginning of everything that really matters spiritually.
