  5. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:21-22 NKJV 21. “Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

  6. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:23 NKJV “But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise,”

  7. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:24 NKJV “which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar—” “Which things are an allegory:” KJV

  8. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:25-26 NKJV 25. “for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children-- 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.”

  9. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:27-28 NKJV 27. “For it is written: "Rejoice, O barren, You who do not bear! Break forth and shout, You who are not in labor! For the desolate has many more children Than she who has a husband." 28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise.”

  10. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:29 NKJV “But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now.”

  11. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:30 NKJV “Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman."

  12. 2 Exegesis of Text Gal. 4:31-5:1 NKJV 4:31 “So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.” 5:1 “Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.”
