Verse 21
21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Ver. 21. For the circumcising of the child ] Christ would be circumcised, and so become bound to fulfil the law, that he might free us that were under the law,Galatians 4:5; Galatians 4:5 . He shed his blood for us when he was but eight days old; he took us into his family by baptism when we hung on our mother’s breasts. Should we not then serve him betimes, remember him from our infancy?
