When did Jews circumcise their sons7 Day creation- literal or figurative?
I see the above thread has found new life. It's one of those topics that will be discussed forever. While my position is that the first chapters of Genesis refer to the historical events surrounding God's creative acts, I find the "literal or figurative" debate to be a false dichotomy.
I have fun discussing my view and the views of others when the participants have the right attitude. But I think of such discussions as speculation. If pressed with, "What really happened?" my answer would be, "I don't know."
So why do so many seem to find that an unsatisfactory answer?
Interesting question to relate, but is it related? Wouldn't it be day 6 rather than day 8 days if it were to do with the 7 days of creation, and completeness or state of being very good? Or if it demonstrated removal of sin (after the 7 days when God rested and everything was very good), why did girls have to wait an additional 7 days for a similar purification, when Eve sinned first?When did Jews circumcise their sons
No it would have to do with 8 since one would have to pass through the LORD's SABBATH restInteresting question to relate, but is it related?

No we are a new 8th day creation who have been reborn of the imperishable seed of CHRIST having passed through the Lord's Sabbath RestWe live today on the present 6th Day, the Day of Salvation, which will not come to an end until God's heaven is filled with ALL of it's host according to Genesis 2:1.

No one can even see the kingdom of GOD unless they are born againThe Sabbath rest is future. It will not happen until AFTER Jesus returns and changes ALL creatures into vegetarians. Gen 1:30
