but the Scripture has shut up the whole world in prison together under sin, in order that the promise due to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who have faith.

Before the Faith came we were perpetual prisoners under the Law, in preparation for the destined faith about to be revealed.

but now that the Faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor-slave.

but is under the control of guardians and trustees, until the time appointed by his father.

So we Jews also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the empty externalities of the world.

But when the fulness of time was come God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under law,

to redeem from captivity those under law, in order that we might receive our sonship.

But if you are habitually led by the Spirit you are not under law.
