What they subsequently read in the bible would be discovered knowledge (should it apply to them), not something written on their hearts.
Where did you get the idea that God cannot write one of His commandments on your heart "if you read it first"?? where does that text come from?
By contrast -- we have this
"FAITH comes by hearing - and hearing by the WORD of God" Rom 10 KJV
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. NKJV
17 so then the faith [is] by a report, and the report through a saying of God, YLT (Young's Literal translation)
I am talking about a Gentile
I presume that gentile has "faith" - so then where did that faith come from?
Romans 10 has the answer.
At no point does the Bible claim that if you get something from the Word of God - -then that is the part of the Law of God that cannot be written by God on the heart.
Notice the context for Jeremiah 31:31-34 does not say "That part of the Law of God that you did not read first".
"IF they will not hear Moses NEITHER will they listen though one rises from the dead" Luke 16
But some will say "I thought Christ came to oppose the writing of Moses" -- however notice that in Matthew 17 it is "Moses and Elijah" standing in glorified form "WITH Christ" before the cross -
