G3588–ὁ–ho

All this is allegorical; for the women represent two Covenants. One has its origin on Mount Sinai, and bears children destined for slavery.

αἱ hai “<the>”

This is Hagar; for the name Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, which is in bondage together with her children.

τὸ to “<the>”τῇ tēa “<the>”τῇ tēa “to the”τῶν tōn “the”

But the Jerusalem which is above is free, and *she* is *our* mother.

ἡ hē “<the>”

For it is written, "Rejoice, thou barren woman that bearest not, break forth into a joyful cry, thou that dost not travail with child. For the desolate woman has many children--more indeed than she who has the husband."

ἡ hē “you who [are]”ἡ hē “you who [are]”τὰ ta “[are] the”τῆς tēs “of the”τῆς tēs “of [her] who”τὸν ton “the”

Yet just as, at that time, the child born in the common course of nature persecuted the one whose birth was due to the power of the Spirit, so it is now.

ὁ ho “the [one]”τὸν ton “the [one born]”

But what says the Scripture? "Send away the slave-girl and her son, for never shall the slave-girl's son share the inheritance with the son of the free woman."

ἡ hē “the”τὴν tēn “the”τὸν ton “the”ὁ ho “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τοῦ tou “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

Therefore, brethren, since we are not the children of a slave-girl, but of the free woman--

τῆς tēs “of the”

Christ having made us gloriously free--stand fast and do not again be hampered with the yoke of slavery.

τῇ tēa “<the>”

I once more protest to every man who receives circumcision that he is under obligation to obey the whole Law of Moses.

τὸν ton “the”

Christ has become nothing to any of you who are seeking acceptance with God through the Law: you have fallen away from grace.

τοῦ tou “<the>”τῆς tēs “<the>”

You were running the race nobly! Who has interfered and caused you to swerve from the truth?

τῇ tēa “the”

No such teaching ever proceeded from Him who is calling you.

ἡ hē “[This]”τοῦ tou “the [One]”

A little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough.

τὸ to “the”

For my part I have strong confidence in you in the Lord that you will adopt my view of the matter. But the man--be he who he may--who is troubling you, will have to bear the full weight of the judgement to be pronounced on him.

ὁ ho “The [one]”τὸ to “the”

As for me, brethren, if I am still a preacher of circumcision, how is it that I am still suffering persecution? In that case the Cross has ceased to be a stumbling-block!

τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “of the”

Would to God that those who are unsettling your faith would even mutilate themselves.

οἱ hoi “those”

You however, brethren, were called to freedom. Only do not turn your freedom into an excuse for giving way to your lower natures; but become bondservants to one another in a spirit of love.

τὴν tēn “the”τῇ tēa “to the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

For the entire Law has been obeyed when you have kept the single precept, which says, "You are to love your fellow man equally with yourself."

ὁ ho “<the>”τῷ tō “this”τὸν ton “the”

For the cravings of the lower nature are opposed to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are opposed to those of the lower nature; because these are antagonistic to each other, so that you cannot do everything to which you are inclined.

ἡ hē “The”τοῦ tou “the”τὸ to “<the>”τῆς tēs “the”

Now you know full well the doings of our lower natures. Fornication, impurity, indecency, idol-worship, sorcery;

τὰ ta “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

hard drinking, riotous feasting, and the like. And as to these I forewarn you, as I have already forewarned you, that those who are guilty of such things will have no share in the Kingdom of God.

τὰ ta “<the> [things]”οἱ hoi “those”τὰ ta “such”

The Spirit, on the other hand, brings a harvest of love, joy, peace; patience towards others, kindness, benevolence;

ὁ ho “<the>”τοῦ tou “of the”

good faith, meekness, self-restraint.

τῶν tōn “<the> [things]”

Against such things as these there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their lower nature with its passions and appetites.

οἱ hoi “Those”τοῦ tou “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”τοῖς tois “[its]”ταῖς tais “<the>”

Brethren, if anybody be detected in any misconduct, you who are spiritual should restore such a one in a spirit of meekness. And let each of you keep watch over himself, lest he also fall into temptation.

οἱ hoi “the”τὸν ton “<the>”
