because a will does not take effect until the one who made it has died; it cannot be executed while he is still alive.
Context
15Kwa sababu hii Kristo ni mpatanishi wa agano jipya, ili kwamba wale walioitwa waweze kupokea ile ahadi ya urithi wa milele: kwa vile yeye alikufa awe ukombozi wao kutoka kwa dhambi walizozitenda chini ya agano la kwanza. 16Kwa habari ya wosia,* ni muhimu kuthibitisha kifo cha yule aliyeutoa, 17kwa sababu wosia huwa na nguvu tu wakati mtu ameshakufa; kamwe hauwezi kutumika wakati yule aliyeuandika bado yuko hai. 18Hii ndiyo sababu hata lile agano la kwanza halikuweza kutekelezwa pasipo damu. 19Mose alipotangaza kila amri kwa watu wote, alichukua damu ya ndama na ya mbuzi, pamoja na maji, sufu nyekundu na matawi ya mti wa hisopo, akanyunyizia kile kitabu na watu wote.
