For this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; giving my laws to their understanding, even on their hearts will I inscribe them: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people. And they shall no more teach every man his neighbour, and every one his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me from the mean man of them unto the great among them. For I will be placable to their unrighteousnesses and their sins, and their iniquities I will never more remember." In calling it a new covenant, he hath made the first antiquated. Now what is antiquated and grown aged, is near evanescence.
