cha.dash describes what is newly made, introduced, renewed, or set in contrast with what was before.

The adjective marks things presented as newly made, introduced, or renewed: it describes tangible items such as carts, garments, houses, jars, ropes, and wineskins, as well as songs, offerings, names, hearts, spirits, a covenant, and things God announces or creates. Several clauses explicitly contrast what is new with what is old, former, or previously unknown.

   The adjective occurs with both tangible and nonmaterial nouns or realities. In 1 Samuel 6:7 the feminine singular form appears in the instruction that the APB renders, "take and make one new cart"; in Joshua 9:13 the masculine plural form occurs in the report about wineskins that "were new" but later "have broken up." In Ezekiel 36:26 masculine and feminine singular forms occur in the promise the APB renders, "I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit"; Isaiah 43:19 uses the feminine singular form in the declaration, "I am doing a new thing." Ecclesiastes 1:10 places the masculine singular form in a claim about something called new that "has already been for ages that were before us."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly includes "new" in clauses concerning objects, songs, offerings, hearts, spirits, names, and created things. Its wording confirms the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolating every individual occurrence.
