• 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)

• 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 Being new makes the old out of date, and, decaying and waxing old, it is ready to vanish away.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)
