“The Lord made not this couenant with our fathers, but with vs: euen vs, who are all of vs here aliue this day.”
1611 King James Version (KJV)
5:3 Not with our fathers - Only: but with us, who are all alive - He saith not, that all who made the covenant at Sinai are now alive, but this covenant was made with all that are now alive; which is most true, for it was made with the elders in their persons, and with the rest in their parents, who covenanted for them.
