Deuteronomy 30:6

This is an early prophecy of what He will do. What is the terminology? "The Lord your God will circumcise your heart." He will change our hearts and write His laws in them. Here it appears as something that God will do unilaterally.

Deuteronomy 30:4-6

A supernatural circumcision by God has to take place—a circumcision made without hands. This implies a cooperative effort: God does His part, and we do our part. He makes possible the circumcision—for which we are responsible—by circumcising us supernaturally, so that we can yield to Him, put aside human nature, and make the choices to do the right thing.
