[12] And yes, he's equally the father of those who embrace both religious heritage and living faith—those who don't merely carry cultural traditions but walk the same path of radical trust that Abraham demonstrated before any religious rituals entered the picture.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
