“This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be circumcised.”
“So Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,”
“On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or purchased with his money—every male among the members of Abraham’s household—and he circumcised them, just as God had told him.”
“and his son Ishmael was thirteen;”
“But if any male is not circumcised, he will be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.””
“Generation after generation, every male must be circumcised when he is eight days old, including those born in your household and those purchased from a foreigner—even those who are not your offspring.”
“Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.”
“Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.”
“You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.”
