# Hebrews 12:1-2 and Covenant Hebrews 12:1-2 teaches that the "cloud of witnesses" (faithful believers from Hebrews 11 who lived under the old covenant) now encourages us to persevere in faith by looking to Jesus, "the founder and perfecter of our faith." Jesus is presented as the ultimate fulfillment of God's covenant promises, who endured the cross to bring the new covenant to completion. The passage emphasizes that faith in Christ—the covenant mediator—is what enables believers to run their race with endurance. > "Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God." (Hebrews 12:1-2, ESV)
