Verse 3

world

kosmos = mankind. (See Scofield " :-")

Verse 19

little children

The allegory Galatians 4:22-31 is addressed to justified but immature believers (cf) 1 Corinthians 3:1; 1 Corinthians 3:2 who, under the influence of legalistic teachers, "desire to be under the law," and has, therefore, no application to a sinner seeking justification. It raises and answers, for the fifth time in this Epistle, the question, Is the believer under the law? ; Galatians 2:19-21; Galatians 3:1-33; Galatians 3:26; Galatians 4:4-6 Galatians 4:9-31.

Verse 24

Agar

Hagar.

Verse 25
