From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Verse 15. And so, after he had patiently endured. After he had waited for a long time. He did not faint or grow weary, but he persevered in a confident expectation of the fulfilment of what God had so solemnly promised. He obtained the promise. Evidently the promise referred to in the oath--that he would have a numerous posterity. The apostle intimates that he had waited for that a long time; that his faith did not waver, and that in due season the object of his wishes was granted. To see the force of this, we are to remember, (1.) that when he was called by God from Haran, and when the promise of a numerous posterity was made to him, he was seventy-five years old, Ge 12:1-6.
