{That first covenant} (h(8820)pr(9374)(8820)ekein(885c)). The word
diath(886b)(885c) (covenant) is not expressed, but clearly meant by the
feminine gender pr(9374)(885c). {Faultless} (amemptos). Old compound
adjective for which see  Lu 1:6  Php 2:15 . The condition is
second class and assumes that the old covenant was not
"blameless," apparently a serious charge which he hastens to
explain. {For a second} (deuteras). Objective genitive with
diath(886b)(8873) understood. The conclusion with an and the
imperfect passive indicative (ez(8874)eito) is clearly a
second-class condition. See a like argument in  7:11 .
