Galatians 4:10

Ye observe. The Greek implies scrupulous care.

Days, and months. Paul here refers to the seven ceremonial sabbaths and the new moons of the ceremonial system (see Lev. 23; Num. 10:10; 28:11-15). There is no basis in Scripture for assuming, as some do, that the “days” of which Paul here speaks refer to the seventh-day Sabbath. Nowhere in the Bible is the seventh day referred to in the language here used. Furthermore, the seventh-day Sabbath was instituted at creation (see on Gen. 2:1-3; cf. on Ex. 20:8-11), before the entrance of sin and some 2,500 years before the inauguration of the ceremonial system at Mt. Sinai. If observance of the seventh-day Sabbath subjects a man to bondage, it must be that the Creator Himself entered into bondage when He observed the world’s first Sabbath! And that conclusion is unthinkable.

Times. Literally, “appointed seasons,” here, the annual set festivals of the Jewish religious calendar (see on Num. 28:2).

Years. The sabbatical year and the year of jubilee (see Ex. 23:10, 11; Lev. 25:8-12).
