(Strong's #2699 — Noun Feminine — katatome — kat-at-om-ay' )

lit., "a cutting off" (kata, "down," temno, "to cut"), "a mutilation," is a term found in Philippians 3:2 , there used by the Apostle, by a paranomasia, contemptuously, for the Jewish circumcision with its Judaistic influence, in contrast to the true spiritual circumcision.
