Why would God command Abraham to cut away something He Himself created? What did circumcision have to do with walking before God and becoming “perfect”? Beneath this ancient command lies one of the most profound truths in the entire Torah—God’s desire to partner with humanity in shaping creation itself. Abraham’s act wasn’t about mutilation; it was about transformation. And the lesson still speaks to us today: we’re not meant to stay as we are, but to become who God envisioned from the start. Discover the purpose behind the covenant and what it means for you… in this week’s 5 Minute Torah.
