Galatians 4:22-25

22For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave woman and one by a free woman.

23But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while the son of the free woman was born through promise.

24Now this may be interpreted allegorically: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar.

25Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children.
