The New Covenant, one not unlike the old covenant, made in the days of Moses, but exceeding it greatly. It is superior to the old covenant. The old covenant was, mainly, a foreshadow of this great covenant which was to come.
What is a Covenant? - an eternal promise made by the supreme YHWH, who never breaks His promises, ever.
The Old covenant was the covenant of constant sacrifice and the blood of sheep and goats. The new covenant was sealed in one great atonement of the great lamb, slain before the foundation of the world, the one who alone is worthy. The New Covenant that washes away the sins of the House of Israel once and for all, when the great YHWH Himself forgives their iniquities and remembers their sins no more.
Th Old Covenant had a human high priest, one that was fallible and indeed sinned. Yet in the New Covenant, we have a divine prophet, priest, and king, in the likeness and lineage of David and yet greater than David, who has been counted worth of more glory than Moses.
(Heb 8:1-13 The Scriptures 1998+)
Now the summary of what we are saying is: We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Greatness in the heavens, and who serves in the set-apart place and of the true Tent, which יהוה set up, and not man.
For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and slaughters. So it was also necessary for this One to have somewhat to offer. For if indeed He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the Torah, who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly, as Mosheh was warned when he was about to make the Tent. For He said, "See that you make all according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." But now He has obtained a more excellent service, inasmuch as He is also Mediatorof a better covenant, which was constituted on better promises.
For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. For finding fault with them, He says, "See, the days are coming," says יהוה, "when I shall conclude with the house of Yisra'ĕl and with the house of Yehuḏah a renewed covenant, not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Mitsrayim, because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them," says יהוה. "Because this is the covenant that I shall make with the house of Yisra'ĕl after those days, says יהוה, giving My laws in their mind, and I shall write them on their hearts, and I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people. "And they shall by no means teach each one his neighbour, and each one his brother, saying, 'Know יהוה,' because they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. "Because I shall forgive their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall no longer remember."By saying, 'renewed,' He has made the first old. Now what becomes old and growing aged is near disappearing.
(Heb 8:1-13 The Scriptures 1998+)
"Today, if you would hear His voice:
"Do not harden your hearts as in Meriḇah,
And as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,
"When your fathers tried Me,
Have proved Me,
though they saw My work.
"For forty years I was grieved with that generation,
And said, 'They are a people who go astray in their hearts,
And they do not know My ways.'
"As I swore in My wrath,
'If they enter into My rest...' " כי הוא אלהינו ואנחנו עם מרעיתו וצאן ידו היום אם־בקלו תשׁמעו׃
אל־תקשׁו לבבכם כמריבה כיום מסה במדבר׃
אשׁר נסוני אבותיכם בחנוני גם־ראו פעלי׃
ארבעים שׁנה אקוט בדור ואמר עם תעי לבב הם והם לא־ידעו דרכי׃
אשׁר־נשׁבעתי באפי אם־יבאון אל־מנוחתי׃
(Excerpt of Psalm 95)

This is the ENTIRE REASON God became a man! This song is why Jesus suffered and died on the Cross, so He could write God's Law on our hearts, that we might KNOW HIM, and have our sins forgiven.
But how many Churches teach that God's Law is done away with, that we can not truely know God whilst in these bodies, and though our sins are forgiven, we still have to sin.
They trampel the Blood of Christ under their feet!

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (April 21) is Maundy Thursday. This passage from Jeremiah can be read as an Old Testament Lesson for today. May we all learn to love one another as Jesus commanded us to do on this day.
