Hebrews 9:15-17 And for this reason he became the Mediator of the new covenant, that he might by his death be redemption, to them who had transgressed the first covenant; so that they, who are called to the eternal inheritance, might receive the promise.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ And for this reason he became the Mediator of the new covenant, that he might by his death be redemption, to them who had transgressed the first covenant; so that they, who are called to the eternal inheritance, might receive the promise. ¹⁶ For where there is a testament, it indicateth the death of him who made it. ¹⁷ For it is valid, only of a deceased person; because it hath no use, so long as the maker of it liveth.
