The mediator-of-the-new-covenant Christology of Hebrews reaches its logical conclusion here: Christ's death is retroactively effective for those who lived under the first covenant, redeeming 'the transgressions that were under the first testament.' The Greek diathēkē — translatable as both 'covenant' and 'testament/will' — is exploited in verses 16–17 to introduce the analogy of a will that becomes effective only at the testator's death, creating a legal metaphor for the cross as the event that activates the inheritance. The phrase 'eternal inheritance' (aiōniou klēronomias) deliberately echoes the land-inheritance language of the Mosaic covenant while eschatologizing and spiritualizing it, a characteristic Hebrews hermeneutical move. The verse is foundational for Christian understandings of the relationship between the two covenants and Old Testament salvation.
