7:21Jesus replied,50 “I performed one miracle51 and you are all amazed.527:22However, because Moses gave you the practice of circumcision53 (not that it came from Moses, but from the forefathers), you circumcise a male child54 on the Sabbath.
Footnotes
- 50 Grk “Jesus answered and said to them.”
- 51 Grk “I did one deed.”
- 52 The “one miracle” that caused them all to be amazed was the last previous public miracle in Jerusalem recorded by the author, the healing of the paralyzed man in John 5:1–9 on the Sabbath. (The synoptic gospels record other Sabbath healings, but John does not mention them.)
- 53 Grk “gave you circumcision.”
- 54 Grk “a man.” While the text literally reads “circumcise a man” in actual fact the practice of circumcising male infants on the eighth day after birth (see Phil 3:5) is primarily what is in view here.
