you shall circumcise (Niphal form, possibly passive or reflexive)
Genesis 17:11 contains God's covenant command to Abraham: 'You shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin.' The verb here appears in an unusual Niphal (passive/reflexive) form, which some scholars attribute to a variant root (malal) though most now see it as simply a form of the common mul (circumcise). The construction may emphasize the community's participation—'you shall have yourselves circumcised'—or reflect dialectal variation. Circumcision marked Israelite males as covenant participants, a permanent bodily sign of relationship with YHWH, performed on eight-day-old infants and adult converts alike.

1. sense 1 — This Niphal perfect (or possibly Qal from variant root) appears in Genesis 17:11 within the Abrahamic covenant. Spanish 'circuncidaréis' and French 'circoncire' render it as active command, smoothing over the unusual form. The passive/reflexive voice may stress covenant participation rather than mere ritual performance—this is something done to oneself as entry into community, not merely a surgical procedure performed on another. 1×
