Galatians 5:2 Behold, I Paul say to you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. Circumcision was the shadow of the substance which the Christian man already enjoyed. The law which prescribed it had already done its true work and was abolished in Christ. Where was the sense then of leaving the great liberator for one of the most grievous shackles of their old tyranny? (H. W. Beecher.)
