It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, ^(E)“And to your offspring,” who is Christ.

^28 (A)There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave^[a] nor free, ^(B)there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. ²⁹ And ^(C)if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, ^(D)heirs according to promise.
