Bible Question: Where does it say "he(Moses) had not followed God's commandment to circumcise his son"? |
Bible Answer: The fact that Zipporah circumcised their son shows Moses did not follow the law that God gave to Israel that all males would be circumcized on their 8 th day. Genesis 17:10-12 (NASB) 10 "This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: every male among you shall be circumcised. 11 "And you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be the sign of the covenant between Me and you. 12 "And every male among you who is eight days old shall be circumcised throughout your generations, a servant who is born in the house or who is bought with money from any foreigner, who is not of your descendants. |
