Abstract There is scholarly disagreement over the connection of the anticipated benefits of the new covenant of Jer 31 with the promise in 31:34 (»for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more«). The forgiveness promised is best viewed as the precondition for the covenant to come into force, not as a benefit under that covenant. This is in accord with the logic of the new covenant itself, wherein obedience is assured and so forgiveness is not needed under this covenant. The promise of forgiveness explains how the new covenant is possible after the failure of God’s people.
