Verse 6
A covenant of the people "A covenant to the people" - For עם am , two MSS. of Dr. Kennicott's, and of my own, read עולם olam , the covenant of the age to come, or the everlasting covenant; which seems to give a clearer and better sense. But I think the word ברית berith , here, should not be translated covenant, but covenant sacrifice, which meaning it often has; and undoubtedly in this place. This gives a still stronger and clearer sense.
