Question
Was Adam circumcised from birth, and is God circumcised?
Since Adam was made in the image of God and God has a body, therefore is Gods body circumcised?
Thanks.
Answer
This is a Jewish website, where even mention of God having a body is totally absurd! Regarding Adam, our sages teach (Avot d'R. Natan 2, 5) that he was created circumcised with no need for any additional intervention.
