Galatians 4:21-23

Expanded Bible

The Example of Hagar and Sarah

²¹ Some of you still want to be under the law. Tell me, do you know what the law says? ²² [^LFor] The Scriptures say that Abraham had two sons. The mother of one son was a slave woman, and the mother of the other son was a free woman. ²³ Abraham’s son from the slave woman was born ·in the normal human way [or through human effort/plan; ^Laccording to the flesh; ^CIshmael; Gen. 16]. But the son from the free woman was born ·because of the promise God made to Abraham [^Lthrough the promise; ^CIsaac; Gen. 17; 21].
