What is the perspective of Emanuel Swedenborg and the New Church (Swedenborgian) on Christ's death and resurrection. Does Jesus' blood cover sin?

I have spent time on the website [Spiritual Insights for Everyday Life, by Lee & Annette Woofenden](https://leewoof.org) , which has articles about some of this information but I cannot find what seems to be a sufficient answer to my questions on the nature of Christ's sacrifice according to Swedenborg's interpretation of scripture.
Some of the questions I have in regard to the Swedenborgian perspective:
Why did Christ die?
Did Christ die for our sins as an offering as we find in the Old Testament?
What about the book of Hebrews? How can Christ be the new covenant if his blood does not cover sin?
I am just needing more clarity. I cannot seem to piece it together.
