That would be Abraham, because he believe God and it was credited to him as righteousness.
For in The Bible, the book of Genesis Chapter 15 verse 6 we read:
Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness.
What he believed is found in the verses 4 & 5:
Then the word of the LORD came to him: "This man will not be your heir, but a son who is your own flesh and blood will be your heir." He took him outside and said, "Look up at the sky and count the stars-if indeed you can count them." Then he said to him, "So shall your offspring be."

The Holy Scriptures are the same as The Holy Bible -- if you are a Christian. If you are of the Jewish faith, the holy scriptures will be, of course, the Hebrew Bible, sometimes called the TaNaKh*. These scriptures contain almost exactly what Christians have in what they call the Old Testament, but the order is different, and the viewpoint of some of the texts is different. Obviously, there are many other faiths in the world; each faith has its own scriptures -- entirely different texts. Because the term "the Holy Scriptures" can mean so many different things to different people, it is very wise to avoid the use of this term unless you are sure your audience is all of one faith. *TaNaKh is an acronym derived from the three sections in the Hebrew Bible. T - stands for Torah (law or guide), the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. N - stands for Neviim (prophets), the various books of the prophets. In the Hebrew Bible, Samuel is considered one of the prophets. Kh - stands for khetuvim (writings), those texts not otherwise covered in the other two sections. As you can see, the view of the texts in Judaism is a bit different from that of Christianity.
