Contextual Overview

17 (As it is written, that I haue made thee a father of many nations) before God, whom he beleued, which restoreth the dead vnto life, and calleth those thynges whiche be not, as though they were. 18 Who contrary to hope, beleued in hope, that he shoulde be the father of many nations, accordyng to that which was spoken: so shall thy seede be. 19 And he faynted not in the fayth, nor considered his owne body nowe dead, when he was almost an hundred yeres old, neither yet the deadnesse o Saraes wombe. 20 He stackered not at the promise of God through vnbeliefe: but was strong in fayth, geuyng glorie to God: 21 And beyng full certified, that what he had promised, he was able also to perfourme. 22 And therfore was it reckened to hym for righteousnes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And being fully persuaded,.... He had not only faith, a strong faith, but full assurance of faith:

that what he [God] had promised; though it was so long ago, and there were so many difficulties in the way;

he was able, being the Lord God Almighty,

to perform; so his faith rested upon the power of God, with whom nothing is impossible.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And being fully persuaded - Thoroughly or entirely convinced; Luke 1:1; Romans 14:5; 2 Timothy 4:5, 2 Timothy 4:17.

He was able - Compare Genesis 18:14. This was not the only time in which Abraham evinced this confidence. His faith was equally implicit and strong when he was commanded to sacrifice his promised son; Hebrews 11:19.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 21. And being fully persuaded — πληροφορηθεις, his measure: his soul was full of confidence, that the truth of God bound him to fulfil his promise and his power enabled him to do it.
