1 Then I say, that the heire as long as hee is a childe, differeth nothing from a seruant, though he be Lord of all,

4 But when the fulnesse of time was come, God sent forth his Sonne made of a woman, and made vnder the Lawe,

22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes, one by a seruant, and one by a free woman.

23 But he which was of the seruant, was borne after the flesh: and he which was of the free woman, was borne by promise.

24 By the which things another thing is meant: for these mothers are the two testaments, the one which is Agar of mount Sina, which gendreth vnto bondage.

25 (For Agar or Sina is a mountaine in Arabia, and it answereth to Hierusalem which nowe is) and she is in bondage with her children.

27 For it is written, Reioyce thou barren that bearest no children: breake forth, and cry, thou that trauailest not: for the desolate hath many moe children, then she which hath an husband.

30 But what sayth the Scripture? Put out the seruant and her sonne: for the sonne of the seruant shall not be heire with the sonne of the free woman.
