Galatians 4:8 in Context — Galatians 4
6 Et parce que vous êtes fils, Dieu a envoyé dans nos cœurs l’Esprit de son Fils, lequel crie: Abba! Père!
7 Ainsi tu n’es plus esclave, mais fils; et si tu es fils, tu es aussi héritier par la grâce de Dieu.
8 Autrefois, ne connaissant pas Dieu, vous serviez des dieux qui ne le sont pas de leur nature;
9 mais à présent que vous avez connu Dieu, ou plutôt que vous avez été connus de Dieu, comment retournez-vous à ces faibles et pauvres rudiments, auxquels de nouveau vous voulez vous asservir encore?
10 Vous observez les jours, les mois, les temps et les années!
