Hebrews 8:5-13

5The place where they serveG3000 is a copyG5262 andG2532 shadowG4639 of whatG3588 is in heavenG2032. This is whyG2531 MosesG3475 was warnedG5537 when he was aboutG3195 to buildG2005 theG3588 tabernacleG4633: “See to it thatG3708 you makeG4160 everythingG3956 according toG2596 theG3588 patternG5179 shownG1166 youG4771 onG1722 theG3588 mountainG3735.”1

6NowG3570, howeverG1161, Jesus has receivedG5177 a muchG3745 more excellentG1313 ministryG3009, just asG2532 the covenantG1242 He mediatesG1510G3316 is betterG2909 and is foundedG3549 onG1909 betterG2909 promisesG1860. 7ForG1063 ifG1487 thatG1565 firstG4413 covenant had beenG1510 without faultG273, noG3756 placeG5117 would have been soughtG302G2212 for a secondG1208. 8But God found faultG3201 withG846 the people and saidG3004:

“BeholdG2400, the daysG2250 are comingG2064, declaresG3004 the LordG2962,when I will makeG4931 a newG2537 covenantG1242withG1909 theG3588 houseG3624 of IsraelG2474andG2532 withG1909 theG3588 houseG3624 of JudahG2448.9It will notG3756 be likeG2596 theG3588 covenantG1242I madeG4160 withG3588 theirG846 fathersG3962whenG1722G2250 IG1473 tookG1949 themG846 by theG3588 handG5495to leadG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 the landG1093 of EgyptG125,becauseG3754 theyG846 did not abideG3756G1696 byG1722 MyG1473 covenantG1242,and IG2504 disregardedG272 themG846,declaresG3004 the LordG2962.10ForG3754 thisG3778 is theG3588 covenantG1242 I will makeG1303with theG3588 houseG3624 of IsraelG2474afterG3326 thoseG1565 daysG2250,declaresG3004 the LordG2962.I will putG1325 MyG1473 lawsG3551 inG1519 theirG846 mindsG1271andG2532 inscribeG1924 themG846 onG1909 theirG846 heartsG2588.AndG2532 I will beG1510 theirG1519G846 GodG2316,andG2532 theyG846 will beG1510 MyG1473G1519 peopleG2992.11No longerG3756G3361 will each oneG1538 teachG1321 hisG846 neighborG4177 or hisG846 brotherG80,sayingG3004, ‘KnowG1097 theG3588 LordG2962,’becauseG3754 they will all knowG3956G1492 MeG1473,fromG575 the leastG3398 of themG846 toG2193 the greatestG3173.12ForG3754 I willG1510 forgiveG3588G2436 theirG846 iniquitiesG93andG2532 will rememberG3403 theirG846 sinsG266 noG3756G3361 moreG2089.”2

13ByG1722 speaking ofG3004 a newG2537 covenant,3 He has madeG3822 theG3588 first one obsoleteG4413; andG1161 whatG3588 is obsoleteG3822 andG2532 agingG1095 will soonG1451 disappearG854.
