Who has rendered us FIT as servants of the NEW TESTAMENT , Not of WRITING BUT of the Spirit , for the WRITING kills but the Spirit makes ALIVE .

The word TESTAMENT / DIATHEKE , and many believe that is means NEW COVENANT and that we are under the NEW COVENANT .

But the Greek word COVENANT . DIATHEKE can be translated by the following words >

#1 Covenant
#2 Testament
#3 Will
#4 Compact
#5 ARRANGMENT

What say you ?

Context illuminates the meaning of words ….I would say all of those accurate definitions …. WILL is probably the least best word to be used in this context and #1 Covenant & #2 Testament are probably the better use in this context
