Galatians 4:24-26

New Catholic Bible

²⁴ Now this is an allegory. These women represent two covenants. One covenant is given on Mount Sinai and bears children who are born into slavery; this is Hagar. ²⁵ Hagar stands for Sinai, a mountain in Arabia, and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, for she is in slavery together with her children. ²⁶ However, the Jerusalem that is above is the free woman, and she is our mother.
