Primary Verses:
-
Gen. 17:10-14
-
"This is my covenant, which ye
shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee;
Every man child among
you shall be circumcised. And ye shall
circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a
token of the covenant betwixt me and you. And
he that is eight days
old shall be circumcised among you,
every man child in your generations, he that is born in
the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which
is not of thy seed. He that is born in thy house, and
he that is bought with thy money, must needs be
circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for
an everlasting covenant. And the uncircumcised man
child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised,
that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath
broken my covenant."

son, and all that were born in his house, and all that
were bought with his money,
every male among the men of Abraham's house; and
circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame
day, as God had said unto him. And
Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was
circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. And Ishmael
his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised
in the flesh of his foreskin. In the selfsame day was
Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son. And all the
men of his house, born in the house, and bought with
money of the stranger, were circumcised with him."
