Jesus is answerable for the fulfillment of the obligation which he guarantees in the New Covenant. The obligation being eternal life for the Believer.

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?

A Guarantee or surety, ( The Dictionary says ) One who warrents, or gives a formal assurance or guaranty, as for the fulfilment of obligations; also, the giving of a guaranty; the assuming of responsibility for the fulfilment of some obligation, the truth of a statement, etc; also, a warrant, pledge, or formal assurance given by way of security, ( as, goods stamped with the maker's guarantee, as for genuineness, quality, or durability. ( We are stamped with the Holy Spirit ) My thought.

"Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant." or surety."

This " better covenant" is also called the new covenant or testament. It is new and better because it allows us to go directly to God through Christ. We no longer need to rely on sacrificed animals and mediating priests to obtain God's forgiveness. This new covenant is better because, while all human priests die, Christ lives forever. Priests and sacrifices could not save people, but Christ truly saves. You have access to Christ. He is available to you 24 hours around the clock.

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?

A surety is a promise of payment, should the person who owes money default Parents may go guarantor for their children to make a major purchase. However, should the child not be able to pay, the parent or guarantor will be required to pay, even if it costs their own property.

Jesus was appointed our guarantor before the beginning of time, and indeed He took us on, knowing full well that He would have to pay. Sin leads to death as it did with Cain and Abel, and death is the spilling of blood. (The spilling of blood is like the logo for all forms of sin.) How much blood has been spilt over the centuries and millenia? Yet Jesus' blood is able to cover all this, should a man repent. So, in due time, He paid for sin, and blood spilt through sin, with His own blood on Calvary, and with His blood He will advocate in the heavenly places for those who repent of sin and submit (actively and passionately) to Him who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Such people can receive through Him their miraculous renewal as sons of Yahweh in the realm of the eternal.

A surety or guarantee is a promise of the fulfilling of a debt owed.

Jesus, Himself, is our guarantor--He promises the fulfilment of the new covenant with us. He is preparing a place for us in heaven.

[JustJeff]

A guarantee is that the debt will be paid by the guarantor. Jesus paid the debt for our sin on calvary and as our High Priest He continually intercedes on our behalf. Thus He is the final sacrifice and the last High Priest, fulfilling the Old Covenant and paying the guarantee due on the New.

A guarantee/surety is a promise made, which holds one "answerable for the fulfillment of the obligation which he guarantees
When God declared Jesus a Priest forever, Jesus became God's guarantee of a better covenant. Jesus Himself brought about The New Covenant on the cross.

[masika]

Guarantee or Surety is a security or safety given to stand as foundation of stability or support in Court of law.
Christ is the Guarantee of the New Covenant in that He undertook to make atonement for the sins of all people, and thus prepare the way to deliver all people from the pnishment to which they had rendered themselves liable.

[Loisb]

Q2. (a) A guarantee is a promise, an assurance, to make oneself answerable for something. If something is guaranteed, you know that it will be completed.

(b ) Jesus has promised to save us by dying on the cross and he kept his promise. He also said that we would find a home in heaven if we live right, so he has guaranteed to see us there and he never breaks his promise.

[b]Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?[/b][/size]



The oath of Christ’s priesthood is unalterable and unchangeable. Christ is the guarantee of a better covenant.
The guarantee is that all God’s promises will be fulfilled. The name Jesus is used purposely (Matt. 1:21).
The adjective better in this context means eternal. The promise of God is I will be their God and they are
my people (Jer. 31:33; Heb. 8:10).[size="4"]

[Craig]

If a guarantee or surety is to mean anything, it must be an obligation of some kind that is answerable for. If is there is no accountability for a guarantee it is not a guarantee.

Jesus is guarantor of the New Covenant by His Name, word and what He did on the cross.

[Stan]

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?

It is something or someone that can cause something that has been promised to come true or be fulfilled. Jesus is our guarantor because He rose from the dead, as He said He would and sat down at the Father's right hand where He can fulfill His promise to bring us to where He is and that means that we will rise from the dead or be taken up when He come back for His own. He is our surety because He is god and can not lie as His word says and by dieing for our sin we are sure of our salvation because His word says we can be.

[June]

It is a promise to fulfill an obligation. To be answerable for the situation which one guarantees.
Jesus will usher in the New Heaven & New Earth as He has promised when He returns.

[PCHRIS]

A surety is a sureness, certainity - something that makes sure; guarantee - one who becomes a guarantor for another person - bond, bail, security for loan.

In secular dealings the surety is related to another person, here in Hebrews it is relating to the covenant, that Jesus guarantees that the covenant will be honoured.
In v19 the writer tells us that this new covenant will bring in a better hope.

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?

A guarantee or surety is a person who agrre to be responsible for somebody or for making sure that something happen or is done, or something that make something else certain to happen or to be done.

Jesus is the guarantor of the New Covenant in a sense that Jesus is One who makes himself as a guarantee or surety of the New Covenant that the role of Jesus is as our High Priest forvever who entered the heavenly “Holy of Holies� and presented before God his own blood for our sins, and was seated at the right hand of the Father to speak on our behalf as our Advocate.

[STEPHEN ROSS]

A Guarantor is someone who agrees to be responsible for any debts,or any agreements made on behalf of another person. Jesus has become our Gaurantor as he took on our sins so that we would not have to bear the punishment we so rightly deserved. In other words he stood in the gap,so we would not have to take the punishment directed towards man. The Gaurantee of the New Covenant was made through the shedding of the blood of Jesus.

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?


What is a guarantee or surety?

* "Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant." "Guarantee" (NIV, NRSV) or "surety" (KJV) is egguos, "under good security, guarantee."13 This word in common Greek "is found frequently in legal and other documents in the sense of a surety or guarantor. The egguous [guarantor] undertakes a weightier responsibility than the mesitēs or mediator; he is answerable for the fulfillment of the obligation which he guarantees."


In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?

* Far more than a human high priest, Jesus himself is responsible to bring about the New Covenant -- and did on the cross. At his return he will usher in the Kingdom in all its glory and the New Heaven and New Earth

[AngelOnLine]

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety?
A guarantee or surety is the promise that what Jesus has offered us will be fulfilled.

In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant?
Jesus is the guarantor of the New Covenant by the fact that He died on the Cross for us.

[Jewell]

A promise. Jesus death and resurrection are the guarantee.

[Eudora]

Q2. (Hebrews 7:22) What is a guarantee or surety? Something that assures a particular outcome like our promise of eternal life. We have that in writing.

In what sense is Jesus the guarantor of the New Covenant? He left His last will and testament to us, His children. We read it daily. If we do not read it, how will we know what our inheritance is? He is our inheritance. Like my commentary reads here in my New Living Translation Bible: This " better covenant" is also called the new covenant or testament. It is new and better because it allows us to go directly to God through Christ. We no longer need to rely on sacrificed animals and mediating priests to obtain God's forgiveness. This new covenant is better because, while all human priests die, Christ lives forever. Priests and sacrifices could not save people, but Christ truly saves. You have access to Christ.

It’s like back to the anchor for a minute: Jesus was the forerunner that supposes all will follow. He is the runner who ran before us and anchored us in heaven. There is no doubt that we will arrive in port one day, but what we do with the vessel will depend on what kind of condition we arrive in. We we enter the port with thanksgiving in our hearts? Will we slip right into port with no problem like we live there in the kingdom already and know where we will park? Or will we be like a water laden barge that still has to be guided in by pilot ship? Jesus is our pilot ship. When we seek Him, we will find Him. The Bible tells us this.. He has been leading us ever since He died and rose again. He is waiting for the right time to pull up the anchor and lift us all to be with Him.
