In this Bible study podcast, Andy Davis goes line by line through Hebrews 8:8-13. The author proves from Jeremiah’s promise of a “New Covenant” that there would come a time when the Old Covenant would be obsolete. The promise to Jeremiah lists the reason for the change: the people were unfaithful and broke the Old Covenant. The promise also describes the essential changes between the New Covenant: 1) total forgiveness of sins; 2) the law of God written on the hearts and minds of the people (i.e. a changed nature from within by the power of God); 3) a permanent lasting relationship with God. Therefore, the author concludes that the Old Covenant would soon disappear.
