Hebrews 9:17

For a covenant is affirmed over those dead, since it never has force when The one covenanting is living.

Brothers, I speak according to man, a covenant having been ratified, even among mankind, no one sets aside or adds to it.

And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I die. But God shall be with you, and bring you again into the land of your fathers.

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I die. But God shall be with you, and bring you again into the land of your fathers.

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
