A Divine Allegory
At the end of chapter 4 The Apostle Paul takes a different approach with the Galatians. He uses the allegorical method in interpreting the Genesis 21 account of Hagar and Sarah. We learn from this divine allegory that those who seek salvation in the flesh are children of Hagar and those who receive it by faith through promise are children of Sarah. The Galatians are commanded to cast out the slave woman and her child which implies the Law and the law-keepers.
