with a perfect heart.The meaning of this expression may be inferred from that of a double heart in ver. 33. If a double heart be expressive of insincerity or duplicity, a perfect heart, which seems to be put in opposition to it, must signify a sincere, faithful, and entire attachment. 1Ki 8:61; 11:4; 2Ki 20:3; Ps 101:2all the rest.17,18; Ge 49:8-10; 2Ch 30:12; Ps 110:3; Eze 11:19
