Hebrews 8:9
_ _ Not according to, etc. — very different from, and far superior to, the old covenant, which only “worked wrath” (Romans 4:15) through man’s “not regarding” it. The new covenant enables us to obey by the Spirit’s inward impulse producing love because of the forgiveness of our sins.
_ _ made with — rather as Greek, “made to”: the Israelites being only recipients, not coagents [Alford] with God.
_ _ I took them by the hand — as a father takes his child by the hand to support and guide his steps. “There are three periods: (1) that of the promise; (2) that of the pedagogical instruction; (3) that of fulfillment” [Bengel]. The second, that of the pedagogical pupilage, began at the exodus from Egypt.
_ _ I regarded them not — English Version, Jeremiah 31:32, translates, “Although I was an husband unto them.” Paul’s translation here is supported by the Septuagint, Syriac, and Gesenius, and accords with the kindred Arabic. The Hebrews regarded not God, so God, in righteous retribution, regarded them not. On “continued not in my covenant,” Schelling observes: The law was in fact the mere ideal of a religious constitution: in practice, the Jews were throughout, before the captivity, more or less polytheists, except in the time of David, and the first years of Solomon (the type of Messiah’s reign). Even after the return from Babylon, idolatry was succeeded by what was not much better, formalism and hypocrisy (Matthew 12:43). The law was (1) a typical picture, tracing out the features of the glorious Gospel to be revealed; (2) it had a delegated virtue from the Gospel, which ceased, therefore, when the Gospel came. |
Hebrews 8:9
When I took them by the hand — With the care and tenderness of a parent. And just while this was fresh in their memory, they obeyed; but presently after they shook off the yoke. They continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not — So that covenant was soon broken in pieces. |

And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.
Joshua 23:15-16 Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all good things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you. ...

2 Kings 17:15-18 And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that [were] round about them, [concerning] whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them. ... Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
