HELPS Word-studies Cognate: 4061 peritomḗ – properly, cut around, i.e. the removal of the male foreskin in circumcision (the visible sign of God's covenant in the OT). See 4059 (peritemnō). The sign of physical circumcision relates to the Seed, the Messiah (the Christ) – the one prophesied to incarnate through the physical line of David (the tribe of Judah). Accordingly, the "promise-sign" of circumcision became physically associated with the (procreative) male organ. [Christ was prophesied to come through the physical seed (line) of Judah (the kingly tribe).] NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom peritemnó Definition circumcision NASB Translation circumcised (11), circumcision (25).
