Galatians 4:1-5 I mean this: As long as the heir is a minor, he is no better than a slave, although he is the owner of all the property,

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ I mean this: As long as the heir is a minor, he is no better than a slave, although he is the owner of all the property, ² but he is under guardians and trustees until the time fixed by his father. ³ So when we were minors, we were slaves to material ways of looking at things, ⁴ but when the proper time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, and made subject to law, ⁵ to ransom those who were subject to law, so that we might receive adoption.
