What does the Bible say about circumcision without hands?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that circumcision without hands refers to the spiritual work God does in the hearts of His people, symbolizing the cutting away of sin.

In Colossians 2:11, Paul describes circumcision without hands as a divine act where God removes the filth of the flesh through the circumcision of Christ. This signifies a spiritual transformation, where God circumcises the hearts of His children, enabling them to be accepted before Him based on Christ’s redemptive work. Unlike physical circumcision, which can be performed externally, this inward circumcision is solely the work of God and represents the new birth in Christ, emphasizing His sufficiency for salvation.
