Galatians 6:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 For they themselves which are circumcised keep not the Law, but desire to have you circumcised, that they might rejoice in [a]your flesh.
14 [b]But God forbid that I should [c]rejoice, but in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, whereby the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

- Galatians 6:14 He sticketh not to compare himself with them, showing that on the contrary part he rejoiceth in those afflictions which he suffereth for Christ’s sake, and as he is despised of the world, so doth he in like sort esteem the world as naught: which is the true circumcision of a true Israelite.
- Galatians 6:14 When Paul useth this word in good sense of part, it signifieth to rest a man’s self wholly in a thing, and to content himself therewith.
