And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust
of the earth, then shall your descendants also be numbered.

AD 1849
As the dust, an hyperbole, to express a very numerous offspring, which is more exact, if we take in the spiritual children of Abram. (Menochius)
