For we who desire to be under grace, we hear by faith.
For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave woman and one by a free woman. -Galatians 4:22
But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while the son of the free woman was born through promise. -Galatians 4:23
This is what we have heard INTERPRETED:
Now this may be interpreted allegorically:
these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar. -Galatians 4:24
Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. -Galatians 4:25
But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother. -Galatians 4:26
Likewise, can be interpreted allegorically:
One is from Mount Zion, bearing children for freedom; she is Sarah.
Now Sarah is Mount Zion in Jerusalem; she correspond to the Jerusalem from above,
for she is in freedom with her children.
For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear; break forth and cry aloud, you who are not in labor! For the children of the desolate one will be more than those of the one who has a husband." -Galatians 4:27
The Jerusalem above, rejoice; break forth and cry aloud, for her children are more than those of the one who has a husband.
Now we as brothers to the apostles, like Isaac, we are children of promise.
But just as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now. -Galatians 4:29
But what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the slave woman and her son, for the son of the slave woman shall not inherit with the son of the free woman." -Galatians 4:30
So when the fullness time have come, the children of the free woman to inherit the kingdom prepared from the foundation of the world ; the slave woman and her children will be casted out.
As children of free woman, let us thank God for the covenant that He made with Abraham and Sarah, that we can be children of the promise; children born from above.
