Hebrews 8:5-7
Revised Standard Version
5 They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tent,[a] he was instructed by God, saying, “See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.” 6 But as it is, Christ[b] has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second.
