Ulitmatley Paul is saying that being circumcised is valuable if you obey the Law, and that converserly, circumcision is of zero value if you do not obey the Law. He then draws 2 conclusions with 2 scenarios: 1)if a Gentile obeys the Law, then he will be viewed as being circumcised, and 2)if a Gentile obeys the Law, then he will judge those who disobey the Law even though they are possessors of the Law and are physcially circumcised. He then gives his foundation for the conclusions: A Jew is one who is inwardly circumcised, a circumcision of the heart that is done by the Spirit. This person is not circumcised by the letter at all, only by the Holy Spirit. And this person's praise comes from God and not from others. *A "hidden" link that Paul makes is between obedience to the Law and circumcision of the heart performed by the Holy Spirit.

Romans
Romans 2:25-29
NT
nasb
For indeed circumcision is of value
if you practice the Law;
conditional
but if you are a transgressor of the Law,
your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
alternative
So if the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law,
will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?
And he who is physically uncircumcised, if he keeps the Law,
will he not judge you who though having the letter of the Law and circumcision are a transgressor of the Law?
series
For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly,
nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh.
But he is a Jew who is one inwardly;
and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter;
negativepositive
and his praise is not from men,
but from God.
