Eze 11:19 | TNotes | STEP | 11:19 The external change in the fortunes of God’s people would be matched by an internal change; their singleness of heart would mark undivided loyalty to the Lord and replace their wayward affections of the past. A tender, responsive heart (literally a heart of flesh ) would replace their stony, stubborn heart (literally the heart of stone ), and in place of the old idolatrous spirit they would receive a new spirit (see 36:26-27 ).

‏ Ezekiel 11:19

11:19 ^a The external change in the fortunes of God’s people would be matched by an internal change; their singleness of heart would mark undivided loyalty to the Lord and replace their wayward affections of the past. A tender, responsive heart (literally a heart of flesh) would replace their stony, stubborn heart (literally the heart of stone), and in place of the old idolatrous spirit they would receive a new spirit (see 36:26-27 ^b).
