Acts 7:8

He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day, and Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.
[The circumcision of Jewish boys is a sign of God's eternal covenant with Abraham, see Gen. 17:10–12. Already in Moses' time, God made it clear that the physical sign was not enough – the heart also needed to be circumcised, see Deut. 10:16; 30:6; Jer. 4:4. The ceremony is performed on the eighth day and is called brit mila, see also Luke 1:59.]
