The New Testament

Easton's Bible Dictionary - New Testament -
New Testament - (Luke 22:20), rather "New Covenant," in contrast to the old covenant of works, which is superseded.
  • "The covenant of grace is called new; it succeeds to the old broken covenant of works. It is ever fresh, flourishing, and excellent; and under the gospel it is dispensed in a more clear, spiritual, extensive, and powerful manner than of old"
  • (Brown of Haddington).
Hence is derived the name given to the latter portion of the Bible.
Easton's Bible Dictionary - Testament -
Testament occurs twelve times in the New Testament (Heb. 9:15, etc.) as the rendering of the Gr. diatheke, which is twenty times rendered "covenant" in the Authorized Version, and always so in the Revised Version. The Vulgate translates incorrectly by testamentum, whence the names "Old" and "New Testament," by which we now designate the two sections into which the Bible is divided.
