So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the sons of Israel at Gibeath-haaraloth.
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it and said, “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me!”
At that time the Lord said to Joshua, “Make flint knives and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
And this is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: all the males of the people who came out of Egypt, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way after they had come out of Egypt.
