“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.”
Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what matters is the new creation. — Paul's final relativization of the boundary-marker (circumcision/uncircumcision) points to 'kaine ktisis' (new creation, a cosmic eschatological term), suggesting that what matters is not ethnic or bodily status but participation in God's new creative act inaugurated in Christ.
