Philippians 3:3 Douay-Rheims

For we are the circumcision, who in spirit serve God; and glory in Christ Jesus, not having confidence in the flesh.

Adam Clarke

1762–1832 Methodist

We are the circumcision - We, who have embraced the faith of Christ crucified, are now entered into the new covenant, and according to that new covenant, worship God in the Spirit, exulting, καυχωμενοι, making our boast of Christ Jesus, as our only Savior, having no confidence in the flesh - in any outward rite or ceremony prescribed by the Jewish institutions.
