God speaks in poetical, metaphorical ways. Often, natural things He commands become prophetic symbols of supernatural realities. For instance, when God gave the rite of circumcision to Abraham, He was foreshadowing the New Covenant when a spiritual “cutting away” of carnality would be available. Born-again believers are now called “The Circumcision”—because a truly devoted heart is a “circumcised” heart (Ph. 3:3). The power that results from this spiritual transformation is truly remarkable.
