Brit Milah: Difference between revisions

Line 22:

The Christian elders, meeting at the [[Council at Jerusalem]] in about 49 A.D. rejected Brit Milah as a Christian practice, however it remains a Jewish practice.

==Description==

James Peron reported:

The original Biblical circumcision of Abraham's time was a relatively minor ritual circumcision procedure in which only the redundant end of the [[foreskin]] extending beyond the tip of the [[glans]] was removed. This was called "Milah". It is from this term that the Jewish Religious Covenant circumcision ritual Bris Milah or Brith Milah got its name.<ref name="peron2000">{{REFjournal

==Risks==

Medical science has identified several risks associated with Brit Milah. Brit Milah is a surgical operation and, like all surgical operations, has the risks of [[infection]], [[bleeding]], and surgical misadventure, up to and including loss of the [[penis]] and [[death]].
