- "Forª there isª° verilyª a disannullingª of the commandmentª going beforeª° forª the¹ weaknessª andª unprofitablenessª thereof.ª ... Forª the¹ lawª made²° nothing² perfect,ª°¹ butª the bringing inª of a betterª hopeª [did]; byª the whichª we draw nighª° unto God.ª" {Hbr 7:18-19} + "Forª ifª thatª firstª [covenant] had beenª° faultless,ª then should² noª¹ placeª have been soughtª° for the second.ª ... In² that he saith,ª° A newª [covenant], he hath made²° the first² old.ª°¹¹ Nowª that which decayethª° andª waxeth oldª° [is] ready² to vanish away.ª¹" {Hbr 8:7-13} + "Andª this¹ [word], Yetª once more,ª signifiethª° the¹ removingª of those things that are shaken,ª° asª of things that are made,ª° thatª those things which cannot² be shakenª°¹ may remain.ª° ... Whereforeª we receivingª° a kingdomª which cannot be moved,ª let us haveª° grace,ª wherebyªª we may serveª° Godª acceptablyª withª reverenceª andª godly fear:ª" {Hbr 12:27-28}
