  • Heb 8:7-9 : 7 If that first covenant had been without fault, there would have been no need to seek a second one. 8 But finding fault with them, he says: 'Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.' 9 It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors on the day I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not remain faithful to my covenant, and so I turned away from them, declares the Lord. 10 This is the covenant I will establish with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds and write them on their hearts.

He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so their bodies are outwardly clean, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works so that we may serve the living God?
