TSNTyndale Study Notes:

4:25 Both Hagar and Mount Sinai were symbols of Jerusalem, which stood for Judaism in Paul’s day. Judaism continued to trust in the law and in physical descent from Abraham for their status before God (cp. John 8:31-59); they rejected Christ and continued to live in slavery to the law (Gal 3:23-24; 4:1-3).
• Mount Sinai in Arabia: The traditional location for Mount Sinai is in the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. However, some have suggested that in Arabia means that Mount Sinai was in Midian, where Moses once lived (see Exod 3:1).

Hagar is Mount Sinai means that Hagar symbolizes Mount Sinai. Here, Paul begins to explain the meaning of the allegory which he began in [4:22](../04/22.md). If it would help your readers, you could indicate explicitly what the phrase Hagar is Mount Sinai means. Alternate translation: [Hagar represents Mount Sinai]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

¬Which & Hagar (Some words not found in SR-GNT: τὸ δὲ Ἁγὰρ Σινᾶ Ὄρος ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ Ἀραβίᾳ συστοιχεῖ δὲ τῇ νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ δουλεύει γὰρ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς)

Paul uses Mount Sinai in Arabia to refer to the covenant and the accompanying laws that Moses gave to the Israelites there. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use plain language to express this. Alternate translation: [Hagar resembles Mount Sinai in Arabia, where Moses received the law and gave it to the Israelites]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

συνστοιχεῖ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: τὸ δὲ Ἁγὰρ Σινᾶ Ὄρος ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ Ἀραβίᾳ συστοιχεῖ δὲ τῇ νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ δουλεύει γὰρ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς)

Paul is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. The words that Paul leaves out could be: (1) Hagar. Alternate translation: [Hagar corresponds] (2) Mount Sinai. Alternate translation: [Mount Sinai corresponds]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ, δουλεύει γὰρ

present Jerusalem ˱she˲_˓is˒_serving for

Paul is describing the religion of Judaism (which emphasized obeying the law of Moses) by association with the city of Jerusalem, which was the center of this religion. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use plain language. Alternate translation: [religion of Judaism, for all who follow this religion are in slavery]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

δουλεύει γὰρ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς

˱she˲_˓is˒_serving for with the children ˱of˲_her

Paul speaks of the religion of Judaism, with its emphasis on obeying the law of Moses, as being in slavery. Here, Paul uses the word slavery to refer to the spiritual bondage that seeking to obey the religious system based on the law of Moses creates. Here, slavery refers to spiritual bondage, and children refers to those people who seek to obey the law of Moses as a means of meriting God’s approval. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use equivalent metaphors from your culture. Alternatively, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [for Jerusalem represents the religious system of Judaism, which results in spiritual bondage for all those who practice it] or [for Jerusalem represents the religious system based on the laws of Moses, which results in spiritual bondage for all those who seek to be righteous before God by practicing it]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

δουλεύει & μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς

˱she˲_˓is˒_serving & with the children ˱of˲_her

Here, Paul refers to the city of Jerusalem as though it were a woman (she and her) who could be in slavery and have children. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Jerusalem represents the religious system of Judaism, which results in spiritual bondage for all those who practice it]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δουλεύει

˱she˲_˓is˒_serving

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of slavery, you could express the same idea with a concrete noun such as “slave,” or you could express the meaning in some other way that is natural in your language.
