# have no confidence in the flesh
Here "flesh" is a metonym for anything concerning one's body, such as his ancestry, whether or not he has been circumcised, and what he does. To have no confidence in the flesh means to understand that those things cannot make a person right with God.

"do not trust that only cutting our flesh will please God"
