1 Now I am saying, so long as the heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, even though he is the owner of everything.
2 Instead, he is under guardians and managers until the date set by the father.
3 So also, when we were underage, we were subservient to the basic principles of the world.
4 But when the fullness of time came, God sent out His Son, born of a woman and born under law—
5 to free those under law, so we might receive adoption as sons.
