John 7:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 [a]Jesus answered, and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
22 (A)Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision, (not because it is of Moses, but of the (B)fathers) and ye on the Sabbath day circumcise a man.
23 If a man on the Sabbath receive circumcision, that the [b]Law of Moses should not be broken, be ye angry with me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the Sabbath day?

- John 7:21 The Sabbath day (which is here set before us for a rule of all ceremonies) was not appointed to hinder but to further and practice God’s works: amongst which the love of our neighbor is the chiefest.
- John 7:23 That is to say, if the law of circumcision which Moses gave, be of so great accompt amongst you, that you doubt not to circumcise upon the Sabbath, do you rightly reprove me for healing a man thoroughly?
