17 Da faldt Abraham på sit Ansigt og lo, idet han tænkte: "Kan en hundredårig få Børn, og kan Sara med sine halvfemsindstyve År føde en Søn?"

2113. Verse 27 And all the men of his house, he that was born in the house and he that was the purchase of silver, from the son who is a foreigner, were circumcised together with him.

'All the men of his house, he that was born in the house and he that was the purchase of silver' means all those at that time inside the Church. 'From the son who is a foreigner' means all who are rational outside the Church. 'Were circumcised by him' means that they were made righteous by the Lord.
