This is all I have to say about circumcision. The Gospels and the letters can not conflict with the scriptures above. There are too many interpretations of the Gospels and letters by people on this matter.

TaNaKh is straight forward on this matter.

Remember:

Your interpretation from the Gospels and letters "CAN NOT VOID OUT TORAH and the PROPHETS".
