And he is then also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

And Abraham is also the father of those who are circumcised and believe. So just being circumcised is not enough. Those who are circumcised must also follow the steps of our father Abraham. He had faith before he was circumcised.

and to make him the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

And Abraham is also the spiritual father of those who have been circumcised, but only if they have the same kind of faith Abraham had before he was circumcised.

And he became the father of the circumcised, who are not only circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith our father Abraham had while he was still uncircumcised.

and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also follow in the steps of the faith of our father Abraham which he had while uncircumcised.

and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

and the father of circumcision to them who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham which he had in uncircumcision.

And he became the father of the circumcised, who are not only circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith our father Abraham had while he was still uncircumcised.

And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which[ he had] being[ yet] uncircumcised.

And he is also the father of the circumcised, who are not only circumcised, but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham possessed when he was still uncircumcised.

He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.

因為律法上記着，亞伯拉罕有兩個兒子，一個是使女生的，一個是自由的婦人生的。那使女所生的是按着肉體生的；那自由的婦人所生的是憑着應許生的。這是比方：那兩個婦人就是兩個約；一個婦人是出於西奈山，生子為奴，就是夏甲。這夏甲是指着阿拉伯的西奈山，與現在的耶路撒冷同類，因為耶路撒冷和她的兒女都是為奴的。但另一婦人就是在上的耶路撒冷，是自由的，她是我們的母親。因為經上記着：「不懷孕、不生養的，你要歡樂；未曾經過產難的，你要高聲歡呼；因為沒有丈夫的，比有丈夫的有更多的兒女。」弟兄們，你們是憑着應許作兒女的，如同以撒一樣。當時，那按着肉體生的迫害了那按着聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。然而經上是怎麼說的呢？是說：「把使女和她兒子趕出去！因為使女的兒子絕不能與自由婦人的兒子一同承受產業。」弟兄們，這樣看來，我們不是使女的兒女，而是自由婦人的兒女了。

你們蒙召就是為此，因為基督也為你們受過苦，給你們留下榜樣，為要使你們跟隨他的腳蹤。

不要自己心裏說：『我們有亞伯拉罕為祖宗。』我告訴你們，上帝能從這些石頭中給亞伯拉罕興起子孫來。

他在陰間受苦，舉目遠遠地望見亞伯拉罕，又望見拉撒路在他懷裏，他就喊着說：『我祖亞伯拉罕哪，可憐我吧！請打發拉撒路來，用指頭尖蘸點水，涼涼我的舌頭，因為我在這火焰裏，極其痛苦。』亞伯拉罕說：『孩子啊，你該回想你生前享過福，拉撒路也同樣受過苦，如今他在這裏得安慰，你卻受痛苦。除此之外，在你們和我們之間，有深淵隔開，以致人要從這邊過到你們那邊是不可能的；要從那邊過到這邊也是不可能的。』財主說：『我祖啊，既然這樣，求你打發拉撒路到我父家去，因為我還有五個兄弟，他可以警告他們，免得他們也來到這痛苦的地方。』亞伯拉罕說：『他們有摩西和先知的話可以聽從。』他說：『不！我祖亞伯拉罕哪，假如有一個人從死人中到他們那裏去，他們一定會悔改。』亞伯拉罕對他說：『如果他們不聽從摩西和先知的話，就是有人從死人中復活，他們也不會信服的。』」

我勸提多到你們那裏去，又差遣那位弟兄與他同去，提多佔過你們的便宜嗎？我們的行事為人不是同一心靈嗎？不是同一步伐嗎？

他們回答耶穌：「我們的父是亞伯拉罕。」耶穌對他們說：「你們若是亞伯拉罕的兒女，就會做亞伯拉罕所做的事。我把在上帝那裏所聽見的真理告訴了你們，現在你們卻想要殺我；亞伯拉罕沒有做過這樣的事。

你這女子中最美麗的，你若不知道，只管跟隨羊羣的腳蹤行，在牧人的帳棚邊，牧放你的小山羊。

把我的腳鎖上木枷，察看我一切的道路。』

這不是說上帝的話落了空。因為從以色列生的不都是以色列人，也不因為是亞伯拉罕的後裔就都是他的兒女；惟獨「從以撒生的才要稱為你的後裔。」

智慧使你行善人的道，守義人的路。
