Hebreos 7:18-19

These verses summarize the argument that God has superseded the Levitical priesthood and the Mosaic Law (Covenant). He has replaced the old system with a system that can do what the old one could not do, namely, bring us into intimate relationship with God.

"The term athetesis, ’annulment,’ is a stronger term than metathesis, ’alteration’ (Hebrews 7:12)." [Note: Lane, p. 185.]

The "better hope" we have is the assurance that this relationship is now possible for us to experience thanks to our great High Priest.
