Ishmael and Isaac represent the two kinds of offspring of Abraham. The first, the natural (fleshly) offspring of Abraham's union with Hagar. The second, the supernatural (spiritual) offspring of Abraham's union with Sarah. In these we have a picture of the two covenants contrasted, representing legalists and true believers. The things of the flesh are always at odds with the things of the spirit (Romans 8:7). Therefore, those of the world will always persecute God's elect. The children of God are a constant reminder to the children of the world that they are accountable to a Creator. | ||||||
