Something Better (Box 24.4)

A prominent theme in Hebrews is that in Jesus Christ, God has provided “something better” (11:40):

• better things (6:9)
• a better hope (7:19)
• a better covenant (7:22; 8:6)
• better promises (8:6)
• better sacrifices (9:23)
• better possessions (10:34)
• a better country (11:16)
• a better resurrection (11:35)
• a better word (12:24)
