John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Not in circumcision — Not after he was circumcised; for he was justified before Ishmael was born, Gen. 15:1-21; but he was not circumcised till Ishmael was thirteen years old, Genesis 17:25.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Romans 4:10

(7) How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

(7) He proves that it belongs to the uncircumcised (for there was no doubt of the circumcised) in this way: Abraham was justified in uncircumcision, therefore this justification belongs also to the uncircumcised. Nay, it does not belong to the circumcised, in respect of the circumcision, much less are the uncircumcised shut out from it because of their uncircumcision.
