“Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.”
But what does Scripture say? 'Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman's son.' — Paul cites Genesis 21:10 (Sarah's demand): the slave woman and her son must be expelled ('ekbalo'), establishing the incompatibility of slavery and freedom within the covenant family; law and grace cannot coexist in justification.
