Description

  1. To cut around.
  2. To circumcise.
    1. Cut off one's prepuce (used of that well known rite by which not only the male children of the Israelites, on the eighth day after birth, but subsequently also "proselytes of righteousness" were consecrated to Jehovah and introduced into the number of his people).
    2. To get one's self circumcised, present one's self to be circumcised, receive circumcision.
    3. Since by the rite of circumcision a man was separated from the unclean world and dedicated to God, the word is transferred to denote the extinguishing of lusts and the removal of sins.
