Joshua 5:3

New International Version

So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the Israelites at Gibeath Haaraloth.

See the chapter Copy

Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said.

At that time the Lord said to Joshua, “Make flint knives and circumcise the Israelites again.”

Now this is why he did so: All those who came out of Egypt—all the men of military age—died in the wilderness on the way after leaving Egypt.
