Galatians 3:15
King James Version
8 Jun 2026
“Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.”
διαθήκη
Covenant, testament, agreement. Diatheke. This cup is the new covenant in my blood. God initiated the covenant. We receive it by faith. His promises are guaranteed.

ὅμως
Nevertheless, yet, still. Not My will but Yours be done. In the deepest anguish Jesus surrendered His preference to the Father. This is the ultimate prayer.
