A New Covenant!
Part 9 of the Covenant Series Thus far in our study of the Covenants, we’ve witnessed the interplay between three of the major covenants in the Hebrew Scriptures. This is what we’ve seen so far— Abraham’s Covenant is a solid, sure oath of God that the seed of Abraham would possess the land of Canaan. Mt. Sinai’s Covenant requires the …
Scattering and Regathering
Part 8 of the Covenant Series David’s dynasty indeed was glorious. He put an end to Israel’s enemies, made plans for the building of God’s Temple and even gathered the material for that Temple. Everything was in place when Solomon ascended the throne to pick up where his father left off and to assemble the Temple. Solomon’s reign increased the …
David’s Covenant
Chapter 7 of the Covenant Series Thus far in our study, we’ve looked at how the Land of Canaan was an eternal promise to Abraham’s seed. Yet in Chapter 6, we discovered that Mt. Sinai’s Covenant sets a prerequisite of Torah (Law) obedience before Abraham’s seed could possess the land of promise. This puts us in a cycle of possession …
Promises and Problems
Part 6 in the Covenant Series In Part 5, we surveyed the making of the covenant at Sinai in light of fulfilling Abraham’s Covenant. In other words, God brought Israel out of Egypt and was leading them toward the land of Canaan because of His promise to Abraham. God instructed Moses from the burning bush to go retrieve His people …
Abraham’s Exodus
Part 5 of the Covenant Series In Part Four, we looked more in depth at Abraham’s Covenant. His covenant consisted of two main parts—1)An innumerable seed would 2) possess the land of Canaan. We also glimpsed some intriguing prophecies concerning Abraham’s descendents through Isaac, Jacob and eventually Joseph’s sons. The promise of Abraham inheriting the world was most certainly made—being …
The Promise Continues
Part 4 of the Covenant Series In Part Three, we looked at the covenant as it was given to Abraham. This covenant had two promises in it—1) Abraham would have many descendents, and 2) those descendents would possess the land of Canaan. Since God put Abram in a deep sleep and walked the covenant Himself, this made Abram’s covenant even …
Abraham’s Covenant
Part 3 of the Covenant Series In Part Two, we looked at the groundwork for how the blood covenant came to be understood by man. This was not a “pagan” ritual devised by the hands of men that the God of Israel used; rather, the understanding of the blood covenant was taught by God to man after the events of …
America’s Relationship with Israel ~ Psalm 122:6

Iran, Persia and Purim Today
In Israel this week, beginning the evening of March 7th, Jews will celebrate the festival of Purim with mardi gras-like pageantry and sumptuous meals. But there is more to Purim than just festivals and food. There is also fasting, praying and tzedakah,(doing good deeds), especially giving to the poor. The moral of the story in the Megilla, (Book of Esther) …
Covenant of Adam
Part 2 of the Covenant Series In Part One, we discussed the two major types of covenant in the Ancient Near East, the uni-lateral (one-sided) and the bi-lateral (two-sided) covenants. Today, we’ll look at an implied covenant and the basis of later covenants. In Genesis 1, we find God establishing a principle in creation. Everything reproduces after its own kind. …
