Romans 2:29
| ← Romans 2:28 | Romans 2:29 (KJV) | Romans 3:1 → |
|---|---|---|
For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
|
But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.
|
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is there] of circumcision?
