Galatians 4:21-31

21Tell me, you who want to be under law, do you not 1listen to the law? 22For it is written that Abraham had two sons, 2one by the bondwoman and 3one by the free woman. 23But 4the son by the bondwoman 5was born according to the flesh, and 6the son by the free woman through the promise. 2478This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants: one proceeding from 9Mount Sinai bearing children 10who are to be 11slaves; 12she is Hagar. 25Now this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. 26But 13the Jerusalem above is free; 14she is our mother. 27For it is written, “15Rejoice, barren woman who does not bear; Break forth and shout, you who are not in labor; For more numerous are the children of the desolate Than of the one who has a husband.” 28And you brethren, 16like Isaac, are 17children of promise. 29But as at that time 18he who was born according to the flesh 19persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, 20so it is now also. 30But what does the Scripture say? “21Cast out the bondwoman and her son, For 22the son of the bondwoman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.” 31So then, brethren, we are not children of a bondwoman, 23but of the free woman.
