KJV ORIGINAL
Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Moses gave you the practice of circumcision — though actually, it didn't start with Moses, it goes way back to your ancestors. And here's the thing: you'll even do circumcisions on the Sabbath when needed.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
You already make exceptions to Sabbath rules when something matters — so why are you upset when I heal people?
