Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.
 

7:12 adamant stone. See note on Ezekiel 3:9. The Hebrew word for “adamant” basically means “pricking” and is often translated “briers.” When used in connection with a stone, however, it means a “pricking” stone, one which can engrave metals or glass. It is translated “diamond” in Jeremiah 17:1.
