Pharisees appear on nearly every page of the Gospels, yet little is known about where they came from, or especially, why they’re so hostile to Jesus. So if you were to create one of these beings out of thin air, what ingredients would you need?

CloseThe story of Sarah and Hagar is one of contention, and Paul draws on this contention in detailing the relationship between the Old and New Covenants in Galatians 4. But the real story is not about simply making a parallel between the two, but drawing a lesson that is meant for all of us to learn from: Don't go back to slavery.
