Hebrews
Chapter 8
8:1 Now a summation on the things which we are saying is this: we have such a high-priest, who sat down by the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
8:2 a minister* of the holy-places and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched and not man.
8:3 For* every high-priest is designated, *that* he may offer both gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary to have also something that he may offer.
8:4 Now if he indeed was upon the earth, he would not even be a priest, seeing there are the priests who offer the gifts according to the law;
8:5 who gives-divine service to what is a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, just-as Moses was divinely-warned when he was about to finish the tabernacle; for* he says, You will make* all things according to the pattern that was shown to you in the mountain. {Ex 25:40}
8:6 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry*, inasmuch as he is also the intermediary of a better{F} covenant*, which has been instituted upon better promises.
8:7 For* if that first{F} covenant * had been blameless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
8:8 For* finding-fault with them, he says, ‘Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, That I will accomplish a{F} new covenant* with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
8:9 not according to the covenant* that I made* with their fathers in the day that I took them by their hand to lead them forth out of the land of Egypt, because they did not remain in my{F} covenant* and I neglected them, says the Lord.
8:10 Because this is the{F} covenant* that I will covenant* with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will give my laws into their mind and I will also write them upon their hearts. And I will be a God to them and they will be a people to me;
8:11 and they may never* need to teach, saying, Know the Lord; to each one his fellow-citizen and each one his brother, because all will know me, from the least to the greatest of them.
8:12 Because I will be lenient to their unrighteousness; I may never* remember their lawlessness and their sins anymore.' {Jer. 31:31-34}
8:13 In the saying, a new covenant *, the first has become-obsolete. But what becomes-obsolete and is aged, it is near to disappearing.
