Galatians 4:22
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.
In context
20 how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you.
21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.
23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born through the promise.
24 These things serve as illustrations, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children into slavery: This is Hagar.
