25–29. See note at Gal 3:23

(Gal 3:25) But when that faith came—we believers are no longer under a paedagogue. (Gal 3:26) For all (not Jews only) of you are sons of God (with full privileges) by means of your faith in Messiah who has come, I mean Jesus. (Gal 3:27) I say “all,” for as many of you as were baptized into union with Christ, put on Christ with all He is and has. (Gal 3:28) I say “all” in the fullest sense of the word, for in our relation to Christ distinctions of nationality and social standing cease to be, and even those of sex are not counted, for you all are one person in Christ Jesus. (Gal 3:29) What does this imply? Nothing less than that if you, even you Galatians, are Christ’s then ye are (as He is) Abraham’s seed, and in accordance with promise (not in accordance with the Law) heirs of all that is promised to Abraham’s seed.
