These are My judgments and My ordinances, and the law which the Lord gave between himself and the children of Israel, in Mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.

These [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments which Moses spoke to the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt,

For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came to be through Jesus Christ.

And the Lord spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of witness, on the first day of the second month, in the second year of their departure from the land of Egypt, saying,

which things are symbolic. For these are two covenants: one in fact from Mount Sinai, bearing children into slavery, which is Hagar--

for Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, and is in slavery with her children--

For you have not come to the mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and darkness and to a whirlwind,

For they could not bear that [which] was commanded: "And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned."

But you have come to Zion, to the Mountain and city of the living God, to a heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels,

and to Jesus, the Mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling which speaks better things than the [blood] of Abel.
