সেই দিনৰ পাছত প্ৰভুৱে কৈছে, তেওঁলোকে সৈতে মই এই নিয়ম কৰিম৷ মই তেওঁলোকৰ হৃদয়ত মোৰ বিধান গাঠি দিম, আৰু তেওঁলোকৰ মনত সেইবোৰ লিখি দিম;

What Does This Mean?

In this verse from Hebrews 10:16, God is speaking and saying that He will make a new covenant with His people where He will put His laws directly into their hearts and minds. This means that instead of following rules externally, they will have God's teachings deeply embedded within themselves.

Explained for Children

Imagine you have a best friend who writes notes to you on your hand so you always remember important things. In this verse, it’s like God is writing His rules on our hearts and minds so we can always remember them and follow them easily!

Historical Background

The book of Hebrews was likely written by an unknown author around 60-70 AD to encourage Jewish Christians who were facing persecution. The audience would have been familiar with Old Testament promises, such as those from Jeremiah, which this verse references.

Living It Out Today

In modern life, this can mean that instead of just following rules out of obligation or fear, we make decisions from a place of internalized values and love for God. For example, if you see someone in need but are running late to an important meeting, your decision might come from your heart rather than external pressures.
