(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Over against their filial freedom in Christ, Paul sets their lapse into subjection to the elements of the world (Gal 4:3).

Knew not God

See on 2Th 1:8.

Ye did service (ἐδουλεύσατε)

Better, were in bondage or were slaves.

By nature (φύσει)

Not denying their existence (comp. 1Co 8:5) but their deity. Emphasis on by nature. Comp. 1Co 10:20.
