Exodus 4:24-26

Expanded Bible

²⁴ ·As Moses was on his way to Egypt [^LOn the way], he stopped at a resting place for the night. The Lord met him there and tried to kill him. ²⁵ But Zipporah took a flint knife and ·circumcised [^Lcut the foreskin of] her son. Taking the skin, she touched Moses’ feet [^Ca euphemism for his genitalia] with it and said to him, “You are a bridegroom of blood to me.” ²⁶ She said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” ·because she had to circumcise her son [^Lby circumcision]. So the Lord let Moses alone [^Cthis event is difficult to interpret, but shows that circumcision is important to God].
