  Galatians 3:23–4:5

  **Show the text**

  23 But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

  24 So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

  25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

  26 For you are all children of God, through faith in Christ Jesus.

  27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

  28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

  29 If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring and heirs according to promise.

  1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a bondservant, though he is lord of all,

  2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed by the father.

  3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.

  4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,

  5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of children.

- Gospel

  Luke 4:16–22

  16 He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. He entered, as was his custom, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

  17 The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written,

  18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed,

  19 and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”

  20 He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.

  21 He began to tell them, “Today, this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”

  22 All testified about him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth, and they said, “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?”
