Galatians 4:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Galatians 4:1

1 Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,

2 but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.

3 Even so we, when we were children, ^awere in bondage under the elements of the world.

4 But ^awhen the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, ^bborn ^cof a woman, ^dborn under the law,

5 ^ato redeem those who were under the law, ^bthat we might receive the adoption as sons.

6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth ^athe Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out,¹ “Abba, Father!”
