# to every man who lets himself be circumcised
|
|
|
|
Paul is using circumcision as a metonym for being Jewish. AT: "to every person who has become a Jew" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

# You are cut off from Christ
|
|
|
|
Here "cut off" is a metaphor for separation from Christ. AT: "You have ended your relationship with Christ" or "You are no longer united with Christ" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# you who would be justified by the law
|
|
|
|
Paul is speaking ironically here. He actually teaches that no one can be justified by trying to do the deeds required by the law. AT: "all you who think you can be justified by doing the deeds required by the law" or "you who want to be justified by the law" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-irony]])

|
|
# you no longer experience grace
|
|
|
|
Who that grace comes from can be stated clearly. AT: "God will not be gracious to you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
