Galatians 4:1-5

1Now I say, as long as the heir is a 1child, he does not differ at all from a slave although he is 2owner of everything,

2but he is under guardians and 3managers until the date set by the father.

3So also we, while we were children, were held 4in bondage under the 56elemental things of the world.

4But when 7the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, 8born of a woman, born 9under 10the Law,

5so that He might redeem those who were under 11the Law, that we might receive the adoption as 12sons.
