Covenant Sign And Seal: The Symbolic Significance Of Circumcision (Part 1)

Covenant Sign And Seal: The Symbolic Significance Of Circumcision (Part 1)

  • Popular
  • Michael Glodo

This article is about the covenant God made with Abraham in Genesis 17. The author discusses the symbolism of circumcision as the sign of the covenant; namely, it showed that an individual was part of God's people and belonged to God, and was a symbol of the removal of sin. In this article, this understanding of the covenant and the symbolism of circumcision is applied to paedobaptism.
