Heb. 7:11‑12,18‑19• 11If indeed then perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, for the people had their law given to them in connexion with *it*, what need was there still that a different priest should arise according to the order of Melchisedec, and not be named after the order of Aaron?
 12For, the priesthood being changed, there takes place of necessity a change of law also.
 18For there is a setting aside of the commandment going before for its weakness and unprofitableness,
 19(for the law perfected nothing,) and the introduction of a better hope by which we draw nigh to God. (Heb. 7:11‑12,18‑19)

• The prophet Jeremiah declares in the Spirit that Jehovah will make a new covenant, and an everlasting one, with all Israel. This, as is here shown, antiquates the first or legal covenant. The new one is evidently not of man's will or weakness, but of God's gracious power working in His people. (“Hebrews 8:12-13” by W. Kelly)
• The cross fulfilled and annulled the legal covenant; the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple was its grave. (“Hebrews 8:12-13” by W. Kelly)
• Strictly speaking, there are but two covenants, in which God has dealt with man on earth, or will—the old and the new. The old was established at Sinai. The new covenant is made also with the two houses of Israel. (“Hebrews 8” by J.N. Darby)
• The covenant is new in the sense that it is entirely different to the old covenant: it is not a new covenant of the same pattern. Being new makes the old out of date, and, decaying and waxing old, it is ready to vanish away. (“The New Covenant: Hebrews 8” by H. Smith)
