Gee I wonder who the Bondwoman is? :scratch:

Gal 4 21Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. 23His son by the slave woman was born in the ordinary way; but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a promise.

24These things may be taken figuratively, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

27For it is written:
"Be glad, O barren woman,
who bears no children;
break forth and cry aloud,
you who have no labor pains;
because more are the children of the desolate woman
than of her who has a husband."
28Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise. 29At that time the son born in the ordinary way persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now. 30But what does the Scripture say? "Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman's son." 31Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.

what did God say to Abraham concerning Sarah? She will be the mother of???

It is really sad when people take Israel out of the picture - read what God said about this -
You have completely taken that verse and twisted it. Deuteronomy Chapter 28 Verse 68, which states :"And Yah shall bring you into Egypt again with SHIPS, by the way whereof I spake unto you, You shall see it no more again and there you shall be sold unto your enemies as bondmen and bondwomen and no man shall buy (redeem)you. Egypt is used as a symbol of bondage and oppression, Egypt is called The House Of Bondage (Ex 13:3,14 / 20:4,- DEUT 5:6 / 7:8 / 26:6), The Iron Furnace (DEUT 4:20), Furnace of Affliction (Isaiah 48:10), which are all synonymous with hard slavery.
The verse is talking about what will happen to Israel if they disobey their covenant with YHWH, as they did, so what are you talking about???
If you can tell me when the "Jews" went into captivity by ship, it is done. Also make sure you mention why they are they State of Israel, and why they are called Israelis not Israelites. They converted as many of them will readily admit. That is why the majority are called Ashkenazi Jews. after their ancestor Ashkenaz, Gen 10:2-5

The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.


3And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

4And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 5By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

Let that speak for itself. Just the facts dear nothing else.
