2 Corinthians 3:6-9

6 who has made us sufficient to be ^aministers of ^ba new covenant, not of ^cthe letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but ^dthe Spirit gives life.

7 Now if ^ethe ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory ^fthat the Israelites could not gaze at Moses’ face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end, 8 will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory? 9 For if there was glory in ^gthe ministry of condemnation, ^hthe ministry of righteousness must far exceed it in glory.

Hebrews 7:22

22 This makes Jesus the guarantor of ⁱa better covenant.
