Luke 2:21
Verse 21. When eight days were accomplished] The law had appointed that every male should be circumcised at eight days old, or on the eighth day after its birth, Ge 17:12; and our blessed Lord received circumcision in token of his subjection to the law, Ga 4:4; 5:3. His name was called JESUS] See Clarke on Mt 1:21 and See Clarke on Joh 1:29.
