What does the Bible say about uncircumcision and its significance in the context of religious practices?
In the Bible, uncircumcision is often used to symbolize spiritual impurity or separation from God. Circumcision, on the other hand, is seen as a sign of belonging to God's chosen people. In the New Testament, the apostle Paul emphasizes that true circumcision is a matter of the heart, not just a physical act. This suggests that outward religious practices are not as important as inner faith and obedience to God.
What does uncircumcision means?
An uncircumcised penis is one that is intact. In an operation called circumcision the foreskin is cut off the penis. This operation is done religious reasons or in some casses especially in the US for health reasons.
Romans 4 What is the significance of Abraham being considered right or 'righteous' before circumcision?
Paul is talking to the Church in Rome. It was made up of both Jewish and non-Jewish believers. He was making the argument that Abraham's righteousness was attributed to him BEFORE he was ever circumcised (Romans 4:10,11), thus opening up "salvation by faith" to all, including the uncircumcised non-Jewish Roman believers. It (the argument) obviates the need for a new, non-Jewish [gentile] believer to be circumcised, as some in the fledgling Church insisted they should be. Paul couldn't address the circumcision issue without first laying the foundation of Abraham's pre-circumcision righteousness. Being considered righteous, or right before God, is a spiritual matter of the heart and is not reliant on a physical ritual. Physical circumcision is only an outward sign and can mean absolutely nothing: God wants circumcision of the heart, not the flesh:-Rom 2:25-29 MKJV For circumcision truly profits if you keep the Law, but if you are a transgressor of the Law, circumcision becomes uncircumcision. (v.26) If then the uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? (v.27) And the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the Law, shall it not judge you, who through letter and circumcision become transgressors of the Law? (v.28) For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that outwardly in flesh; (v.29) but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.Rom 4:9-13 MKJV ... For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. (v.10) How then was it reckoned? Being in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. (v.11) And he [Abraham] received a sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith while still uncircumcised; so that he might be the father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for righteousness to be imputed to them also; (v.12) and a father of circumcision to those not of the circumcision only, but also to those walking by the steps of the faith of our father Abraham during uncircumcision. (v.13) For the promise that he should be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the Law, but through the righteousness of faith.1Co 7:19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.Deu 10:16 Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and be no longer stiff-necked.Jer 4:4 Circumcise yourselves to Jehovah, and take away the foreskins of your heart, men of Judah and people of Jerusalem; lest My fury come forth like fire, and burn so that none can put it out; because of the evil of your doings.Rom 2:29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; ...
