People's New Testament

The other by a freewoman. Sarah, whose child was Isaac (Ge 21:3).

4:22 Gen 21:2,9.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

22. (Ge 16:3-16; 21:2).

Abraham-whose sons ye wish to be (compare Ro 9:7-9).

a bond maid . a free woman-rather, as Greek, "the bond maid . the free woman."

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

4:21-27 The difference between believers who rested in Christ only, and those who trusted in the law, is explained by the histories of Isaac and Ishmael. These things are an allegory, wherein, beside the literal and historical sense of the words, the Spirit of God points out something further. Hagar and Sarah were apt emblems of the two different dispensations of the covenant. The heavenly Jerusalem, the true church 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.

Genesis 16:15 So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

Genesis 21:2 So Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him. (NASB ©1995)
