Covenant sprinkled by blood

Thursday, 2020.06.11
Reading Hebrews Chapter 9.

Every Covenant of God is enforced by sprinkling of blood.

Hebrews 9:19 - 20 NIV
19 When Moses had proclaimed every command of the law to all the people, he took the
   blood of calves, together with water, scarlet wool and branches of hyssop, and
   sprinkled the scroll and all the people.
20 He said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which God has commanded you to keep.”

cf Exodus 24:7 - 8 NIV
7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to the people. They responded,
  “We will do everything the Lord has said; we will obey.”
8 Moses then took the blood, sprinkled it on the people and said, “This is the blood
  of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”

cf Exodus 24:7 - 8 LXX
   And he took the book of the covenant and read it in the ears of the people, and
   they said, All things whatsoever the Lord has spoken we will do and hearken
   therein. And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and said,
   Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.
