# General Information:
This continues the quotation from the prophet Jeremiah.
# the house of Israel
The people of Israel are spoken of as if they were a house. Alternate translation: "the people of Israel" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"the people of Israel"
# after those days
"after that time"
# I will put my laws into their minds
# I will put my laws into their minds and I will also write them on their hearts
God's requirements are spoken of as if they were objects that could be placed somewhere. People's ability to think is spoken of as if it were a place. Alternate translation: "I will enable them to understand my laws" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"I will enable them to understand my laws and I will also enable them to obey my law"
# I will also write them on their hearts
# I will be their God, and they will be my people
Here "hearts" is a metonym for a person's inner being. The phrase "write them on their hearts" is a metaphor for enabling people to obey the law. Alternate translation: "I will also put them in their hearts" or "I will enable them to obey my law" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# I will be their God
"I will be the God they worship"
# they will be my people
"they will be the people for whom I care"
"I will be the God they worship, and they will be the people for whom I care" (Jeremiah 31:33)
