Matthew 23:1-39
Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples,“ The experts in the law and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat.Therefore pay attention to what they tell you and do it. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they teach.They tie up heavy loads, hard to carry, and put them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing even to lift a finger to move them.They do all their deeds to be seen by people, for they make their phylacteries wide and their tassels long.They love the place of honor at banquets and the best seats in the synagoguesand elaborate greetings in the marketplaces, and to have people call them‘ Rabbi.’But you are not to be called‘ Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher and you are all brothers.And call no one your‘ father’ on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven.Nor are you to be called‘ teacher,’ for you have one teacher, the Christ.The greatest among you will be your servant.And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.“ But woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You keep locking people out of the kingdom of heaven! For you neither enter nor permit those trying to enter to go in.

Joshua 5:2-9
At that time the LORD told Joshua,“ Make flint knives and circumcise the Israelites once again.”So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the Israelites on the Hill of the Foreskins.This is why Joshua had to circumcise them: All the men old enough to fight when they left Egypt died on the journey through the desert after they left Egypt.Now all the men who left were circumcised, but all the sons born on the journey through the desert after they left Egypt were uncircumcised.Indeed, for forty years the Israelites traveled through the desert until all the men old enough to fight when they left Egypt, the ones who had disobeyed the LORD, died off. For the LORD had sworn a solemn oath to them that he would not let them see the land he had sworn on oath to give them, a land rich in milk and honey.He replaced them with their sons, whom Joshua circumcised. They were uncircumcised; their fathers had not circumcised them along the way.When all the men had been circumcised, they stayed there in the camp until they had healed.The LORD said to Joshua,“ Today I have taken away the disgrace of Egypt from you.” So that place is called Gilgal even to this day.
