Joshua 5:7-9
New Living Translation
7 So Joshua circumcised their sons—those who had grown up to take their fathers’ places—for they had not been circumcised on the way to the Promised Land. 8 After all the males had been circumcised, they rested in the camp until they were healed.
9 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the shame of your slavery in Egypt.” So that place has been called Gilgal[a] to this day.

- 5:9 Gilgal sounds like the Hebrew word galal, meaning “to roll.”
