Many characteristics of the New Covenant already have been mentioned or implied in the discussion of the Old. But the writer here focuses on several that are especially important in contrasting the two covenants.

Following the pattern used in showing the inadequacies of the Old Covenant (vv. 1-10), the new sanctuary, the new services, and the new significance are described briefly. As always, the point is not to demean the old but to show its shadowy incompleteness. To condense and paraphrase verses 13 and 14, the Holy Spirit is saying, “If these old things were so good as symbols, how much better are the real things they symbolize. If the external, physical, and temporary covenant accomplished its purpose so well, how much better will the internal, spiritual, and eternal covenant accomplish its purpose?”
