Hebrews 8:5-7

New Testament for Everyone

⁵ They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly realities, in line with what Moses was told, when he was getting ready to construct the Tabernacle: “take care that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.” ⁶ Now, you see, Jesus has obtained a vastly superior ministry. In the same way, he is the mediator of a better covenant, which is established on better promises.

The promise of a new covenant

⁷ If the first covenant had been faultless, you see, there wouldn’t have been any reason to look for a second one.
