Hebrews 8:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 8:6
Christ has obtained 'a more excellent ministry' (Greek 'diaphorous leitourgias'—superior service) for two reasons: He is 'mediator of a better covenant' and it is 'established upon better promises.' The new covenant surpasses the old in both its mediator (Christ vs. Moses) and its promises (grace vs. law, internal transformation vs. external requirement).
