This is my covenant with you and your descendants after you, the covenant you are to keep: Every male among you shall be circumcised. You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be THE SIGN OF THE COVENANT BETWEEN ME AND YOU. For the generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised….”

[Hebrews 11:6]

OUCH!!!
JESUS IS
CIRCUMCISED

[Red Badger]

Muslims practice it as well:

[Vigilanteman]

An old rabbi, who had performed hundreds of these circumcisions over his career was once asked what he did with the foreskins.

Oh, he says, I put them on ice and wait until I've collected a sufficient number.

What then?, he was asked.

Well, I sew them into these most wonderful wallets.

What's so wonderful about them?, the inquisitive congregant pressed.

Well, says the rabbi, if you rub them long enough they turn into this nice briefcase!

[Hebrews 11:6]

God gave the sign to Abraham.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Pass.

[Red Badger]

And again to Moses..................

[Manic_Episode]

i couldn’t walk for a whole year after mine...

[Hebrews 11:6]

Causation v. coincidence. Neither could I.

[fwdude]

And so many people watching....

[Hebrews 11:6]

Every artist envisions it in his own way. Too bad this was all before photography....

[etabeta]

You found some great paintings to illustrate this “ouch” moment. Well done, Dan!

[Hebrews 11:6]

Joseph and Mary obeyed so thoroughly every command they received: scriptural and angelic. What heroes!

[Wilderness Conservative]

The Rabbi did not charge for his service. He only took a tip.

[Hebrews 11:6]

So business was bris-k.

[FreshPrince]

Thats going to leave a mark!

[M Kehoe]

Don’t get the mohel drunk before the procedure.

Make sure after the brisk, you feed the mohel and get him drunk, in that way if you have more male children...

[Hebrews 11:6]

“Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit...”

[Hebrews 11:6]

This is a devotional thread commemorating Joseph’s and Mary’s honoring of the scriptural command shown above: the sign of God’s covenant.

Who knows? If you consider that, who knows what profound thoughts and thankfulness the Holy Spirit might have for you.

[M Kehoe]

“Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit...”

What kind of spirit, Jack Daniels?
