1What is the profit of Circumcision? Much every manner of way: 2because unto them are committed the Oracles of God. Ye being in times past Gentiles, and called Uncircumcision of them, who were at that time without Christ, and were aliens from the Common-wealth of Israel, and were strangers from the Covenant of promise, 3and had no hope, and were without God in the world. It shall be a sign of the Covenant between me and you; and it shall be my Covenant in your flesh. Another end is that, that they preserve the memory of Gods benefits. As often as ye ⟨p. 407⟩shall eat this bread, ye show the Lords death until he come. 4This day shall be unto you a remembrance. Thou shalt bind them for a sign unto thy hand, and they shall be as signs of remembrance between thine eyes. Do this in remembrance of me. Lastly, They are also bonds of love: because they who are confederated with God,5 are united also among themselves. One Lord, one faith, &c. We being many, are one body.
