Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἀπερίτμητος [page 57] On the possibility that this harsh word may have been coined by the Greek Jews of Alexandria to express the contempt with which they regarded the uncircumcised, see Deissmann BS , p. 153. Of course it must be remembered that περιτέμνω itself is familiar in papyri, in connexion with the circumcision of priests in Egyptian temples : see Otto Priester i. p. 214.
