‏ Hebrews 8:10

This ( αυτη ). The "new" one of verse 8.

That I will make ( ην διαθησομα ). Future middle of διατιθημ, "that I will covenant," cognate accusative ( ην ), using the same root in the verb as in διαθηκη.

I will put ( διδους ). "Giving," present active participle of διδωμ, to give.

Into their mind ( εις την διανοιαν αυτων ). Their intellect, their moral understanding, all the intellect as in Aristotle (Col 1:21; Eph 4:18).

On their heart ( επ καρδιας αυτων ). Either genitive singular or accusative plural. Καρδια is the seat of man's personal life (Westcott), the two terms covering the whole of man's inward nature.

A god ( εις θεον ). Note the Hebraistic use of εις in the predicate instead of the usual nominative θεος as in "a people" ( εις λαον ). This was the ideal of the old covenant (Ex 6:7), now at last to be a fact.
