Galatians 4:30

28 Now ^awe, brethren, as Isaac was, are ^bchildren of promise.

29 But, as ^ahe who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, ^beven so it is now.

30 Nevertheless what does ^athe Scripture say? ^b“Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for ^cthe son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.”

31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.

Galatians 4:30

What saith the Scripture? - (In Genesis 21:10): Cast out the bond woman and her son: and what does this imply in the present case? Why, that the present Jerusalem and her children shall be cast out of the favor of God, and shall not be heirs with the son of the free woman - shall not inherit the blessings promised to Abraham, because they believe not in the promised seed.
