Old and New Covenant Contrasts – 13

Circumcision:

Exodus 12:48

If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

Made eternal:

Hebrews 13:20

Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant

Faulty:

Hebrews 8:7

For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second.

Perfect:

James 1:25

But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.

Weak:

Hebrews 7:18

For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness

Strong:

Hebrews 7:25

Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

Unprofitable:

Hebrews 7:18

For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness

Profitable:

Hebrews 7:19

(for the law made nothing perfect); but on the other hand, a better hope is introduced, through which we draw near to God.

Hebrews 7:25

Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
