Hebrews 8:13 in context

The verses around it, from Hebrews 8.

9 It will not be like the covenant I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not abide by My covenant, and I disregarded them, declares the Lord.

10 For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds and inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they will be My people.

11 No longer will each one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest.

12 For I will forgive their iniquities and will remember their sins no more.”

13 By speaking of a new covenant, He has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear.
