Gálatas 4:4

It is right to point out that he has linked the sending of the eternal Son with the incarnation. For he does not say "he sent him to come into being as Godhead from a woman," so that we would misunderstand the sending to be the sending of the Godhead. Instead only the Son, not the Godhead, is born of a woman. Now this is peculiar to the incarnation. — EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 4.4-5

Gálatas 4:17

He says this with reference to those evil teachers. "For seeing your conspicuous faith," he says, "they are grieved and all try by every means to rob you of those goods and subject you to their own authority." For that is what he means by writing "that you may emulate them." — EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 4.16

Gálatas 4:28

We were born not according to nature but according to grace. For, just as in Isaac's case, it was not the law of nature but that of the gospel that fashioned us. Thus the promise given to Abraham engendered us. — EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 4.28

Gálatas 4:30

By "the words of Scripture" he means those spoken of Sarah explaining the goal of the Scripture, for the sake of which he has written these things afresh, so that after the truth the type also may be explained. — EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 4.30
