fairness, Paul made it know that these were his orders (verse 17). Physical circumcision means nothing?hwhy said it was the mark of the covenant.Seeing that Abraham faithfully obeyed the command of hwhy and bore the covenant in his flesh at theage of 99, what are we to make of Romans 4:7-15? Paul explains that faith was reckoned unto Abrahamfor righteousness while in a state of un-circumcision, and that the mark of circumcision was a seal of therighteousness of the faith. However, in B-r‘ashyth /Genesis 17:11, hwhy said that the mark ofcircumcision was a sign of the covenant…not a seal of the righteousness of faith. Paul explains that faithwas found in un-circumcision…he never mentions that circumcision didn’t make Abraham faithful, itmade him obedient…which in turn proved his faithfulness.<strong>Circumcision</strong> of the Flesh Was A Condition for Pasachשמות…‏twmv (Shamuth/Exodus) 12:43-49…the importance of the Pasach amongst Yashar῾ål trulyneeds no explanation. It was so important that it is the only one of the mu’adym that we were given a‘make up’ day to take it (B-mdbar/Numbers 9:9-14). The Pasach was extremely important…yet nouncircumcised male could eat of it and there was no make-up day for Pasach for those not circumcised;no uncircumcised male could eat of the Pasach of hwhy. This passage is speaking 100% of a physicalcircumcision.After passing over the Yardan, Yahusha Bn Nun was instructed to circumcise all males that were notcircumcised before the Pasach. In Yahusha Bn Nun 5:2-11, a second circumcision was administered forthose who had been born in the wilderness and had not carried the covenant of hwhy in their flesh. Indoing so, hwhy said that the reproach/scorn/shame of Matsraym was rolled away…is physicalcircumcision still so important today that by not having it done we could still bear the scorn/shame ofMatsraym?<strong>Circumcision</strong> of the Flesh Did Not Cease in the Time of [vwhyNor Was a Command Given to Do SoLuke 2:21…as the command for circumcision of the flesh was not changed during the time of [vwhy,He was circumcised on the eighth day (according to the command) and carried the covenant of hwhy inHis flesh. We know that Yahuchanan was to prepare the way for [vwhy, he also was circumcised (onthe eighth day) – thus carrying the covenant of hwhy in his flesh (Luke 1:59 & 60). In Yahuchanan/John7:21-23, to show an example of righteous judgment, [vwhy made the comparison of Him healing onShabath versus the fact that men would even circumcise on the Shabath in order to keep the Turah.There was no command given by [vwhy from hwhy to end the physical act of circumcision…so wheredid this doctrine come from?The Four Necessities - Words of Man, and Not the Word of hwhyIn Christianity, there is a term that you may be familiar with – I believe it is referred to as ‘the fournecessities.’ This is basically the four things that you must do to inherit salvation as a ‘New Covenant’believer. The scary thing about these four necessities is that they did not come from hwhy, but from fourmen.Acts 15:1-29…because of a dispute about circumcision, the introduction of the four necessities wasgiven by Yʿâqb, not hwhy. <strong>Circumcision</strong> was basically suspended by the elders, Paul, Kaph, Yʿâqb, and
