Those words have been interpreted as though they described the Law as a preparatory education, continued at a higher stage by Christ. That, however, is not quite what Paul meant. The "pedagogue" in Greek society was not a schoolmaster, he did not give lessons. He was a slave who accompanied a boy to school, and both waited upon him and exercised a supervision which interfered with the boy's freedom of action. He is, in fact, a figure in the little allegory which Paul gives us to illustrate the position of the People of God before Christ came. There was a boy left heir to a great estate. He was a minor, and so must have guardians and trustees. He was as helpless in their hands as if he had been a slave. He must live on the allowance they gave him, and follow their wishes from day to day. They gave him a "pedagogue" to keep him out of mischief. He could not please himself, or realize his own purposes and ambitions. Yet all the time he was the heir; the estate was his, and no one else's. Just so the People of God, the Divine Commonwealth, was cramped and fettered by ignorance and evil times. It remained in uneasy expectation of one day coming into active existence. At last the heir came of age: guardians and trustees abdicated their powers, and the grown man possessed in full realization all that was his. So now the fettered life of the Divine Commonwealth bursts its bonds and comes into active existence... The intervention of law was not a reversal of God's original and eternal purpose of pure love and grace towards men, it only subserved that purpose, while it seemed to contradict it, just as the presence of the "pedagogus" might seem to the high-spirited young heir quite contrary to the rights secured to him by his father's will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You need three things in the theatre--the play, the actors and the audience,--and each must give something. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/441]]></link><description><![CDATA[You need three things in the theatre--the play, the actors and the audience,--and each must give something.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I hope they (teens) will be able to manage their money in a manner that is really successful for them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40807]]></link><description><![CDATA[I hope they (teens) will be able to manage their money in a manner that is really successful for them and will provide for them for the rest of their lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old dog Tray's ever faithful; Grief can not drive him away;  He is gentle, he is kind--   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12657]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old dog Tray's ever faithful; Grief can not drive him away;  He is gentle, he is kind--   I shall never, never find    A better friend than old dog Tray!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12657</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let me posses what I now have, or even less, so that I may enjoy my remaining days, if Heaven ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9953]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let me posses what I now have, or even less, so that I may enjoy my remaining days, if Heaven grant any to remain. [Lat., Sit mihi quod nunc est, etiam minus et mihi vivam  Quod superest aevi--si quid superesse volunt di.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the first time, we found fossils that allow us to connect the first phase of human evolution and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30083]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the first time, we found fossils that allow us to connect the first phase of human evolution and the second phase.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great thoughts reduced to practice become great acts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59214]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great thoughts reduced to practice become great acts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59214</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for the lost faith in ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53658]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for the lost faith in ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truth is something which can't be told in a few words.
