    Study Notes

    A True Jew

    • A true Jew is one who is inwardly a Jew, meaning that their Jewish identity is rooted in their heart and spirit.
    • Circumcision is not just a physical act, but a spiritual one, occurring in the heart and driven by the Spirit, rather than just following the letter of the law.
    • The recognition and praise of a true Jew come from God, rather than from human praise or recognition.
