rwbs - Galatians:4:21-31

rwbs@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?

rwbs@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

rwbs@Galatians:4:23 @ But he of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh; but he of the freewoman by promise.

rwbs@Galatians:4:24 @ Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which beareth children for bondage, which is Hagar. (note:)covenants: or, testaments(:note)Sinai: Gr. Sina

rwbs@Galatians:4:25 @ For this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. (note:)answereth to: or, is in the same rank with(:note)

rwbs@Galatians:4:26 @ But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.

rwbs@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, Rejoice, barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she who hath an husband.

rwbs@Galatians:4:28 @ Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.

rwbs@Galatians:4:29 @ But as then he that was born according to the flesh persecuted him according to the Spirit, even so now.

rwbs@Galatians:4:30 @ Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.

rwbs@Galatians:4:31 @ So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
