To him be glory forever and ever! Amen.

but when the proper time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, and made subject to law,

For the Scripture says that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave-girl, and one by the free woman.

But the child of the slave-girl was born in the ordinary course of nature, while the child of the free woman was born in fulfilment of the promise.

This is an allegorical utterance. For the women are two agreements, one coming from Mount Sinai, bearing children that are to be slaves; that is, Hagar

For the Scripture says, "Rejoice, childless woman, who bear no children, Break into shouting, you who have no birth pains! For the desolate woman has more children than the married one!"

Yet what does the Scripture say? "Drive the slave-girl and her son away, for the slave-girl's son shall not share the inheritance with the son of the free woman."

The blessing of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
