³ But we are the ones who are truly circumcised, because we worship by the power of God's Spirit^[a] and take pride in Christ Jesus. We don't brag about what we have done, ⁴ although I could. Others may brag about themselves, but I have more reason to brag than anyone else. ^5 (A) I was circumcised when I was eight days old,^[b] and I am from the nation of Israel and the tribe of Benjamin. I am a true Hebrew. As a Pharisee, I strictly obeyed the Law of Moses.
