Once again, local belief inserting itself into the Scriptures. Hebrews wanted to differentiate themselves from other nearby tribes and clans, and so invented the idea of circumcision as an identity marker. They aren't the only culture to have come up with it either.

circumcision for the Jews, was the lords covenant with them, but they don't know why. everyone U and i r created in lust, the devils way, he shamed man this way, kinda like cutting a woman's long hair off, in the old days when they did something shame full. that's what i believe, through seeking his face. the devils greatest illusion was to get everyone to think they love one another, everyone desires her in the flesh, or him. the lord says not to desire the flesh of this world. so the devil breeds u like a animal, he won't do that to me, I'll find a wife, in the body and spirit. i won't have the shame as everyone Else has, I'll take my wife home to heaven, u won't. like Jesus takes his bride home. ask in my name and may it be given unto u. seek his face.

It was just a sign that one obeyed God. We are under the new covenant now.

Good question. However, I think the Jews, Muslims and american xtians think he did it out of pure sadism, basically.

Read your f'n Bible.
Circumcision is a Jewish custom that Jesus and Paul spend many chapters explaining that you don't need to do it.
