Romans 2:26 in context

Romans 2:23–29

23

You who glory in the law, do you dishonor God by disobeying the law?

24

For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.

25

For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

26
Selected verse

If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?

27

Won’t those who are physically uncircumcised, but fulfill the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?

28

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

29

but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
