'Every Jewish Associated Male Child.'
Genesis 17:12.
a) He who is eight days old among you.
b) Every male throughout your generations,
c) Whether born in your house
d) Or bought with your money
e) From any foreigner who is not of your offspring
f) Must be circumcised.
(This QT refers to Every Jewish Associated Male Child)
PRAY: For Jewish Associated Male Children to be Born Again!

'Eighth Day - Circumcision And Naming.'
Luke 1:59.
a) And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child.
b) And they would have called him Zechariah,
c) After his father.
(Through this Second one I find the eighth day Jewish Practice)
PRAY: To discern what is relevant for today and what is merely historical.

The Jewish people were allowed to buy the male children from any foreigner who lived among them. This was an historical situation and not really relevant for these days. Much of the Bible gives us glimpses into Jewish History and Culture. Of course, we do not follow these ways and things but they give us some idea about Jewish History.
