Periah (also spelled as priah) is a Hebrew word (Hebrew: פריעה) that means uncovering.[1] Periah is the name given to the second part of the Jewish ritual circumcision procedure.
(The following text or part of it is quoted from the free Wikipedia article Uncovering, priah
:)
The main goal of "priah" (also known as "bris periah"), is to remove as much of the inner layer of the foreskin as possible and prevent the movement of the shaft skin, what creates the look and function of what is known as a "low and tight" circumcision.[2]
According to Rabbinic interpretation of traditional Jewish sources,[3] the 'priah' has been performed as part of the Jewish circumcision since the Israelites first inhabited the Land of Israel.[4]

, in: Talmud Bavli Tractate Yebamoth.
Quote:The commandment of uncovering the corona at circumcision was not given to Abraham; for it is said, At that time the Lord said unto Joshua: 'Make thee knives of flint etc.' But is it not possible [that this applied to] those who were not previously circumcised; for it is written, For all the people that came out were circumcised, but all the people that were born etc.? — If so, why the expression. 'Again!' Consequently it must apply to the uncovering of the corona.
