We notice first of all that Hebrews is the only New\u003cbr\u003e Testament document in which the concept and the term diatheke appear with any\u003cbr\u003e degree of prominence. In the teaching of our Lord we meet with the idea only\u003cbr\u003e once, in the institution of the Supper. More frequently it occurs with Paul, in\u003cbr\u003e Romans (9:4; 11:27), 2 Corinthians (3:6, 14), Galatians (3:15, 17; 4:24),\u003cbr\u003e Ephesians (2:12), altogether nine times in six contexts. In Luke’s writings we\u003cbr\u003e find it, apart from the institution of the Supper, once in the Gospel (1:72),\u003cbr\u003e and twice in the Acts (3:25; 7:8). Once also it is met with in the Revelation\u003cbr\u003e of St. John (11:19). This makes sixteen instances of its occurrence outside of\u003cbr\u003e Hebrews. Over against this stand seventeen occurrences in Hebrews alone. In\u003cbr\u003e other words in this single Epistle the conception is more frequent than in all\u003cbr\u003e the rest of the New Testament writings put together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CrossReach Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47081989734640,"sku":"2940153463681","price":1.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940153463681_p0.jpg?v=1764056981","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940153463681","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
