But when the proper time came,
God sent His Son, born of a woman,
born subject to the regulations of
the Law,
To purchase the freedom of ( to ransom,
redeem, atone for) those who were
subject to the Law, that we might be
adopted and have sonship conferred
upon us ( and be recognized as God’s
children).
And because you really are His sons,
God has sent the Holy Spirit of His Son
into our hearts, crying out, Abba (Father)!
Father!
