The Hebrew word for "bind" is "קָשַׁר" (qashar), which implies a strong, secure fastening. This suggests that the teachings should not be loosely held or easily discarded but should be firmly attached to one's innermost being. The "heart" in Hebrew thought is not merely the seat of emotions but the center of one's intellect, will, and moral character. By binding wisdom to the heart, the verse emphasizes the importance of internalizing God's commandments so that they influence every decision and action. Historically, the heart was seen as the core of a person's identity, and thus, this binding is a call to make God's wisdom an integral part of who we are. tie them around your neck Parallel Commentaries ...
