our Father

Compare (Isa 1:2); (Isa 64:8).

Israel, collectively, the national Israel, recognizes God as the national Father (cf) (Exo 4:22); (Exo 4:23); Doubtless the believing Israelite was born anew (cf); (Joh 3:3); (Joh 3:5); (Luk 13:28) but the Old Testament Scriptures show no trace of the consciousness of personal sonship. The explanation is given in (Gal 4:1-7).

The Israelite, though a child, "differed nothing from a servant." The Spirit, as the "Spirit of His Son," could not be given to impart the consciousness of sonship until redemption had been accomplished. (Gal 4:4-6)
