At illi comminantes dimiserunt eos : non invenientes quomodo punirent eos propter populum, quia omnes clarificabant id quod factum fuerat in eo quod acciderat.
plenissime sciens, quia qucumque promisit, potens est et facere.

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.
