Galatians 5:2
Douay-Rheims
Behold, I Paul tell you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
Adam Clarke
If ye be circumcised - By circumcision you take on you the whole obligation of the Jewish law, and consequently profess to seek salvation by means of its observances; and therefore Christ can profit you nothing; for, by seeking justification by the works of the law, you renounce justification by faith in Christ.
