Paul's Allegory of Two Covenants (Gal. 4.21-31)

An article in the most recent issue of New Testament Studies deals with 'Paul's Allegory of Two Covenants (Gal. 4.21-31) in Light of First-Century Hellenistic Rhetoric and Jewish Hermeneutic,' (NTS 52 (2006):102-122). As should be expected when this passage is discussed, Philo is also drawn upon in this study. I cannot say much more at this moment as I have not read the article.
Update:
The article is written by Steven Di Mattei (Section des Sciences religieuses, École Pratique des Hautes Études, 45-47 rue des Écoles, 75005 Paris, France).
