Gal 6:13 | MHM | STEP | v. 13 : Paul says that even these teachers do not truly keep the law themselves. They just want to boast about convincing others to be circumcised, so they can look good to their peers. Their focus is on numbers and outward signs, not on real change in the heart ( For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh ; Galatians 6:13 ).
