  • Deut 29:10-15 : 10 Your children, your wives, and the resident foreigner who lives among your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water. 11 You are entering into the covenant of the LORD your God and His oath, which the LORD your God is making with you today. 12 He is confirming you today as His people, and He will be your God, just as He promised you and swore to your ancestors—Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 13 It is not with you alone that I am making this covenant and this oath. 14 But also with those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God and with those who are not here with us today. 15 For you know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we passed through the nations you encountered on the way.
  • Ps 105:8-9 : 8 He remembers His covenant forever, the word He commanded for a thousand generations. 9 The covenant He made with Abraham, and His oath to Isaac. 10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant.
  • Jer 32:38-40 : 38 They will be My people, and I will be their God. 39 I will give them one heart and one way so that they may always fear Me, for their own good and the good of their children after them. 40 I will make with them an everlasting covenant; I will never turn away from doing good to them.

  • Matt 13:17 : 17 Truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
  • Gal 3:17-21 : 17 This is what I mean: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus cancel the promise. 18 For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God gave it to Abraham through a promise. 19 Why, then, was the law given? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise was made would come. It was administered through angels by a mediator. 20 Now a mediator implies more than one party, but God is one. 21 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.
  • Heb 8:8-9 : 8 But finding fault with them, he says: 'Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.' 9 It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors on the day I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not remain faithful to my covenant, and so I turned away from them, declares the Lord.
