Question: In Matthew 26:27-29 we see this, Also he took a cup of wine, made the b’rakhah, and gave it to them, saying, “All of you, drink from it! For this is my blood, which ratifies the New Covenant, my blood shed on behalf of many, so that they may have their sins forgiven. I tell you, I will not drink this ‘fruit of the vine’ again until the day I drink new wine with you in my Father’s Kingdom. rat·i·fy ˈradəˌfī/ verb 3rd person present: ratifies sign or give formal consent to (a treaty, contract, or agreement), making it officially valid. synonyms: confirm, approve, sanction, endorse, agree to, accept, uphold, authorize, formalize, validate, recognize; sign they failed to ratify the amendment And all throughout the NT we clearly see the Messiah crucified and resurrected, so from perspective blood was indeed shed... Now I have heard several times recently that ppl are still waiting on the New Covenant to be put into place... What exactly seals/activates a covenant???
