Expositor's Bible Commentary Commentary Galatians 4:31

"Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the freewoman." — Galatians 4:31 (ASV)

Of such are the Galatians. The “therefore” of this verse sums up the whole allegory and indeed the entire section of Paul’s doctrinal argument. The shift to the first person (“we”) once again includes both Paul himself and all who embrace the true Gospel.
