Taw Their hearts are hard and callous The phrase "Their hearts are hard and callous" uses vivid imagery to describe a spiritual condition. The Hebrew word for "hard" is "טֻפַּשׁ" (tupash), which conveys a sense of insensitivity or dullness. In biblical times, a callous heart was often associated with stubbornness and resistance to God's will. This imagery is powerful, as a callous forms from repeated friction or pressure, suggesting that these individuals have repeatedly resisted divine influence. Historically, the Israelites were warned against hardening their hearts, as seen in the wilderness wanderings (Exodus 17:7). This phrase serves as a cautionary reminder of the dangers of spiritual insensitivity and the importance of remaining open to God's guidance. but I delight in Your law Parallel Commentaries ...
