Hebrews 8:8 is quoting Jeremiah 31:31.In looking up the word 'new' in the hebrew (strongs#2319), the meaning is truly apparent from the cross references in which the same word is used. Exodus 1:8 says,"a new king arose". 2 Sam 6:3, "a new cart". Deut 24:5,"a new wife". If you can cross reference the word for yourself, there are many more examples that make it clear that 'new' means new and not 'refresh'. I'm praying for clarity for you, sister, because you are right, it is important to understand. Biblehub.com offers lots of cross reference.

I am confused on this issue using the word New! Christian says that it means to start over and people of the Hebrew perspective says it doesn't mean to make new but to refresh which i would think two different means. Can you help me understand what is being said. Did Yahweh give us a new covenant or did he make the one in place a better one
