For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.

so that thou art no longer a bond servant, but a son: and if a son, then an heir of God thro' Christ.

but what saith the scripture? "cast out the bond-woman and her son; for the son of the bond-woman shall not share the inheritance with the son of the free-woman."

There cannot be Jew or Greek, there cannot be bond or free, there cannot be male and female, for, all ye, are one, in Christ Jesus:

for it is there written, Abraham had two sons, the one by a bond-maid, the other by a free-woman.

he, who was of the bond-woman, was born according to the ordinary course of nature; but he, who was of the free-woman, was born by virtue of the promise.

But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a servant.

But I say that as long as the son is a child, he is in no way different from a servant, though he is lord of all;

Now this Hagar is the mountain Sinai in Arabia, and is the image of the Jerusalem which now is: which is a servant with her children.
