VERSE (22) - Ge 16:2-4,15; 21:1,2,10

SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:22

Porque escrito est que Abraham tuvo dos hijos; uno de la sierva, el otro de la libre.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Galatians 4:22

Verse 22. For it is written] Viz. in Gen. xvi. 15; xxii. 1, &c., that Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac; the one; Ishmael, by a bond maid, Hagar; the other, Isaac, by a free woman, Sarah.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 22. For it is written , etc..] In ( Genesis 16:15 21:9) that Abraham had two sons , not two sons only; for besides the two referred to, he had six more, ( Genesis 25:2) but it being only pertinent to the apostle's purpose to take notice of these two, he mentions no more, though he does not deny that he had any more. These two sons were Ishmael and Isaac: the one by a bondmaid . Ishmael was by Hagar, Sarah's servant, who represented the covenant the Jewish nation was under the bondage of. The other by a free woman . Isaac was by Sarah, Abraham's proper and lawful wife, who was mistress of the family, and represented in figure the covenant, and Gospel church state, and all believers, Gentiles as well as Jews, as under the liberty thereof.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 21-27 - The difference between believers who rested in Christ only, and thos who trusted in the law, is explained by the histories of Isaac an Ishmael. These things are an allegory, wherein, beside the literal an historical sense of the words, the Spirit of God points out somethin further. Hagar and Sarah were apt emblems of the two differen dispensations of the covenant. The heavenly Jerusalem, the true churc from above, represented by Sarah, is in a state of freedom, and is the mother of all believers, who are born of the Holy Spirit. They were by regeneration and true faith, made a part of the true seed of Abraham according to the promise made to him.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

22. For (gar). Your determination to be under the law is opposed by Scripture, if you will understand it, for it is written, etc.

A bondmaid (thv paidiskhv). The bondmaid, indicating a well known character, Hagar, Gen. xvi. 3. The word in Class. means also a free maiden; but in N.T. always a slave. So almost always in LXX; but see Ruth iv. 12; Judith xii. 13.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

4:22 {By the handmaid} (ek tes paidiskes). From #Ge 16:1. Feminine diminutive of pais, boy or slave. Common word for damsel which came to be used for female slave or maidservant (#Lu 12:45) or doorkeeper like #Mt 26:29. So in the papyri.
