17 For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people ^jlonged to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings ^pdesired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”

56 Your father Abraham ^trejoiced that he would see my day. He saw it and was glad.”
