'Better' in the Bible

for the Law brought no perfect blessing--but on the other hand we have the bringing in of a new and better hope by means of which we draw near to God.

so much the more also is the Covenant of which Jesus has become the guarantor, a better covenant.

but, as it is, we see them eager for a better land, that is to say, a heavenly one. For this reason God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has now prepared a city for them.

Women received back their dear ones alive from the dead; and others were put to death with torture, refusing the deliverance offered to them--that they might secure a better resurrection.

for God had provided for them and us something better, so that apart from us they were not to attain to full blessedness.
