kjv Hebrews:8:1-10 SEEK

*
Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum :
We have such an high priest ,
who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens ;
*
A minister of the sanctuary ,
and of the true tabernacle ,
which the Lord pitched ,
and not man .
*
For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices :
wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer .
*
For if he were on earth ,
he should not be a priest ,
seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law :
*
Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things ,
as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle :
for ,
See ,
saith he ,
that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount .
*
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry ,
by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant ,
which was established upon better promises .
*
For if that first covenant had been faultless ,
then should no place have been sought for the second .
*
For finding fault with them ,
he saith ,
Behold ,
the days come ,
saith the Lord ,
when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah :
*
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt ;
because they continued not in my covenant ,
and I regarded them not ,
saith the Lord .
*
For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days ,
saith the Lord ;
I will put my laws into their mind ,
and write them in their hearts :
and I will be to them a God ,
and they shall be to me a people :
