SCRIPTURE UNDERSTANDING:-
HEBREWS 8 Now the summary of what we are saying is: We have such a High Priest who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Greatness in the shamayim, 2and who serves in the set-apart place and of the true Tent, which Yahuah set up, and not man. 3For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and slaughters. So it was also necessary for this One to have something to offer. 4For if indeed He were on arets, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the Turah, 5who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly, as Mushah was warned when he was about to make the Tent. For He said, “See that you make all according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” 6But now He has obtained a more excellent service, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better Covenant, which was constituted on better promises. 7 For if that first had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. 8For finding fault with them, He says, “See, the Yomim are coming,” says Yahuah, “when I shall conclude with the house of Yisharal and with the house of Yahudah a NEW Covenant, 9not according to the Covenant that I made with their fathers in the yom when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Mitsrayim, because they did not continue in My Covenant, and I disregarded them,” says Yahuah. 10“Because this is the Covenant that I shall make with the house of Yisharal after those Yomim, says Yahuah, giving My laws in their mind, and I shall write them on their hearts, and I shall be their Alahim, and they shall be My people. 11 And they shall by no means teach each one his neighbour, and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know Yahuah,’ because they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12Because I shall forgive their rebellion, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall no longer remember.” 13By saying, ’NEW,’ He has made the first old. Now what becomes old and growing aged is near disappearing.
