# Connecting Statement:
This section begins to show that the new covenant is better than the old covenant with Israel and Judah.
# Christ has received
"God has given Christ"
# mediator of a better covenant
A mediator is a person who helps two parties come to an agreement. Christ, as mediator, made it possible for a better covenant between God and humans to exist.
# covenant, which is based on better promises
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "covenant. It was this covenant that God made based on better promises" or "covenant. God promised better things when he made this covenant" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
