:::::Man. The Israelites as a nation proved over and over that the Mosaic Covenant was too difficult to live accordingly to, so God promised a new covenant (Jer. 31:31–34) that gave an extra leeway of probation for covenant-adherents who commit transgressions. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>Rev. 22:13</sup>]]''''' Monday, 15:55, July 15, 2024 (EDT)

:::::The "fault" in the first covenant (Heb. 8:7) obviously was on the part of man (since a covenant is between two parties); God's speedy enforcement of judgment under the Mosaic Covenant wasn't in any way immoral, simply "too much" for an entire nation of sinful human beings to prosper in. The New Covenant is "better" (Heb. 7:22) because it forgivingly takes into consideration the backsliding tendencies of sinful men. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>Rev. 22:13</sup>]]''''' Monday, 15:58, July 15, 2024 (EDT)
