'''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' refers to the practice by many Jewish parents of performing a circumcision on eight-day-old boys as mandated by the [[Abrahamic covenant]] found in Genesis 17. The circumcision is NOT a medical procedure. It is carried out by a religious official called a [[mohel]]. The circumcision is a religious ceremony called [[Brit Milah]]. Many Jewish parents are concerned about the health and well-being of their son under the [[pain]], stress, and [[trauma]] of a cutting operation so they substitute a [[Brit Shalom]], which is a non-cutting naming ceremony. Many Jews in [[Israel]] are secular Jews who do not practice circumcision.
