    Gal 6:12 “As many as desire to look good in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.”

    “to look good in the flesh” sounds like someone wants to show off their body, such as at a swimsuit contest

    well i like the WEB version. Esp. the old testament.
    one of the few bibles that have YHWH ( Yahweh ) all the way through the O.T.

    we must never forget the Eternal, sacred name of Abba Yahweh.
    It was a name he gave himself long before the creation of the earth….and he set his name as a memorial to all generations, and all mankind. ( Thank you, Yahweh, for allowing us humans to know your sacred name!

    i praise you, Elohi, Adonia, Yahweh!

    @Wayne: You said that ‘ “to look good in the flesh” sounds like someone wants to show off their body, such as at a swimsuit contest.’ That is what the writer Paul is getting at, in fact. The false view of godliness consisted of an outward token, a detail of the flesh; and for those who valued that token, you had to show the evidence to be accepted.
