“Hagar, the handmaid and a bond-woman, stands the perfect type of the covenant of law: Sarah, the true wife, and a free woman, the representative of the covenant of grace. The first son, Ishmael, born according to nature, a type of the Jew, who by natural birth came into covenant. The second son, Isaac, born contrary to nature, of parents who were ‘as good as dead,’* a type of the resurrection life of this dispensation, the life from above springing out of death.” (Pages 20–21)
