Who Is the Best Father in the Bible?

As we celebrate Father's Day this weekend, the thought came to me to ask you experts who is the best father in the Bible? The Bible tells the stories of many fathers and their struggles to be good parents as part of God's fatherhood call on their lives. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Samuel, Saul, and David wrestled with being fathers to their immediate families and to the nation of Israel. Jesus speaks of God as Abba, Father, to denote an intimate, deeply felt relationship of responsibility and love. So, who is the best father in the Bible and why?
