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://maxioms.com/maxiom/7120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are more often treacherous, through weakness than through calculation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61351]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are more often treacherous, through weakness than through calculation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's life is interesting primarily when he has failed--I well know.

It is not humility -- it is petty pride, withholding its simple gifts from the hands of Christ because they are not more pretentious. There are men who would endow colleges, they say, if they were millionaires. They would help in the work of Bible study if they were as gifted as Henry Drummond. They would strive to lead their associates into the Christian life if they had the gifts of Dwight L. Moody. But they are not ready to give what they have and do what they can and be as it has pleased God to make them, in His service -- and that is their condemnation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Riches, the incentives to evil, are dug out of the earth. [Lat., Effodiuntur opes irritamenta malorum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Riches, the incentives to evil, are dug out of the earth. [Lat., Effodiuntur opes irritamenta malorum.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The swift wind of compromise is a lot more devastating than the sudden jolt of misfortune. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9292]]></link><description><![CDATA[The swift wind of compromise is a lot more devastating than the sudden jolt of misfortune.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9292</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wine gives a man nothing... it only puts in motion what had been locked up in frost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61660]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wine gives a man nothing... it only puts in motion what had been locked up in frost.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conceit is incompatible with understanding ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Conceit is incompatible with understanding]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For even these are no less bestowed on him of pure grace, than are righteousness and salvation themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38317]]></link><description><![CDATA[For even these are no less bestowed on him of pure grace, than are righteousness and salvation themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A little birdie flew overhead a traffic light of green and red.From her diagonal point of view she saw both ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9689]]></link><description><![CDATA[A little birdie flew overhead a traffic light of green and red.From her diagonal point of view she saw both crimson and lime hue.
