2 | What are servants of the new covenant? | 2 Cor 3:6 | Searcher56 | 13087 | ||
What is the new covenant that we are made ministers of? ... The new covenant was promised in the OT (Jer 31:31-34), that the Law would be on our minds and written on our hearts (vs 33), we will know the Lord better (vs 34). It is sealed by His death "blood" (Luk 22:20). Also read Heb 8:6, 9:15 and the context. What is 'the letter?' ... The letter is the Law (Rom 7:6). The verse uses the comparision with the Spirit. Note the Law did not kill, nor does the Scripture. It points out that death is the punishment for sin. Vs. 7 - What is 'the ministry of death?' ...The ministry of death is the 10 Commandments (vs 7). Exodus 34:29-35 describes this verse. It was the basis of the other Laws, which described death. Vs. 9 - What is 'the ministry of condemnation?' ...The ministry of condemnation points back to the ministry of death (vs 7). Also read Leviticus 27:15-26. Vs. 11 - What fades away? The old Mosaic covenant is fading away. Read 3:7-18 to see the comparisons. Steve |
