Biblical response (texts/examples), cultural norms, historical documents, and reasoning of relevant information would be most helpful.

  1. What are the Covenants of the Bible? Please them.
  2. To whom were they written to, the terms, and for how long? Specifically, were they written to individuals or to nations (people)?
  3. Please contrast the Old Covenant and the New Covenant:
    • Parties?
    • length?
    • Terms?
    • Blessings - curses?
    • How are they ratified?
    • Were they temporary or permanent?
    • Conditional or Unconditional?
  1. Are there two covenants or just one that has been renewed and expanded?
  2. What are the common denominators of all covenants?
  3. Can you suggest resources on the New Covenant?
  4. What are the parts of a Covenant?

These and other questions should be asked on this subject for a comprehensive understanding. CM
