Proverbs 7:3 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 7:3
This verse commands binding God's commandments 'upon thy fingers' and writing them 'upon the table of thine heart.' The Hebrew 'qashar' (bind) and 'kathab' (write) indicate permanent, intimate attachment. This echoes Deuteronomy 6:8 and anticipates the new covenant promise of God's law written on hearts (Jeremiah 31:33). From a Reformed perspective, this points to sanctification—the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit impressing God's truth upon the believer's affections and actions. External symbols must lead to internal transformation.
