Some of you may have noticed that we didn’t quite finish chapter 3 yesterday, and yes, that was intentional. The last three verses of chapter 3 actually fit better with Paul’s flow of thought into chapter 4, because Paul is pointing us to our inheritance as heirs in Christ. When it comes to what we each inherit in Christ, there is no division or hierarchy between Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female; we are all sons and heirs. Paul is concerned that the Galatians will be enslaved to the law rather than free in Christ. Using an analogy, Paul says that Abraham’s sons represent two covenants: one born of a slave woman in Arabia, and another, Isaac, who born of a long-awaited promise through Sarah, a free woman.
