Oecumenius, on Heb 8:8

“For finding fault with them, he saith: Behold, the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect unto the house of Israel, and unto the house of Juda, a new testament:”

“If he had nothing lacking, he says, if he made men without fault, how then was he so disturbed? "For finding fault with them." To whom? The Jews who received and were governed by the laws in the Old Testament. "Behold, the days are coming." "After having made the new covenant better than the old in many ways above, now clearly he also mocks the removal of the old, but he does not do this of his own accord, lest he become burdensome, and he brings forth Jeremiah saying, "in the day when I took them by the hand." (Jer. 31:32)”
