How did Abraham display great faith in his reasoning about God's commands to him regarding Isaac?

What faith stories would we tell about Jacob or Joseph? What stories does the Hebrews author tell? Why?

The New and Living Way | Episode 34 | Hebrews 11:17-22

By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac: yea, he that had gladly received the promises was offering up his only begotten son; even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac shall thy seed be called:" accounting that God is able to raise up, even from the dead; from whence he did also in a figure receive him back.

By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.

By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

By faith Joseph, when his end was nigh, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
