Galatians 4:24-26

New Century Version

²⁴ This story teaches something else: The two women are like the two agreements between God and his people. One agreement is the law that God made on Mount Sinai,^[a] and the people who are under this agreement are like slaves. The mother named Hagar is like that agreement. ²⁵ She is like Mount Sinai in Arabia and is a picture of the earthly city of Jerusalem. This city and its people are slaves to the law. ²⁶ But the heavenly Jerusalem, which is above, is like the free woman. She is our mother.
