Hebrews 8 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Heb 8:2

Heb 8:2a minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

Heb 8:6

Heb 8:6But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.

Heb 8:10"For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Yisra'el. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be to them a God, And they will be to me a people.

Heb 8:11

Heb 8:11They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, Every man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' For all will know me, From the least of them to the greatest of them.
