[1] {new} and [2] {covenant}
The New Covenant, Summary: (1) "Better" than the Mosaic covenant not
morally, but efficaciously
# Heb 7:19 Ro 8:3,4
(2) Established on "better" (i.e. unconditional) promises. In the
Mosaic Covenant God said, "If ye will"
# Ex 19:5
in the New Covenant He says, "I will"
# Heb 8:10,12
(3) Under the Mosaic Covenant obedience sprang from fear
# Heb 2:2 12:25-27
under the New from a willing heart and mind
# Heb 8:10
(4) The New Covenant secures the personal revelation of the Lord to
every believer
# Heb 8:11
(5) the complete oblivion of sins
# Heb 8:12 10:17 10:3
(6) rests upon an accomplished redemption
# Mt 26:27,28 1Co 11:25 Heb 9:11,12,18-23
(7) and secures the perpetuity, future conversion, and blessing of
Israel.
# Jer 31:31-40
See also "Kingdom (O.T.)," and
# 2Sa 7:8-17
The New Covenant is the eighth, thus speaking of resurrection and of
eternal completeness.

I. The Eight Covenants, Summary: (1) The Edenic Covenant
» See Note "Ge 1:26"
conditioned the life of man in innocency.
(2) The Adamic Covenant
» See Note "Ge 3:14"
conditions the life of fallen man and gives promise of a Redeemer.
(3) The Noahic Covenant
» See Note "Ge 9:2"
establishes the principle of human government.
(4) The Abrahamic Covenant
» See Note "Ge 15:18"
founds the nation of Israel, and confirms, with specific additions,
the Adamic promise of redemption.
(5) The Mosaic Covenant
» See Note "Ex 19:25"
condemns all men, "for that all have sinned."
(6) The Palestinian Covenant
» See Note "De 30:3"
secures the final restoration and conversion of Israel.
(7) The Davidic Covenant
» See Note "2Sa 7:16"
establishes the perpetuity of the Davidic family (fulfilled in Christ,
# Mt 1:1 Lu 1:31-33, Ro 1:3
and of the Davidic kingdom, over Israel, and over the whole earth; to
be fulfilled in and by Christ
# 2Sa 7:8-17 Zec 12:8 Lu 1:31-33 Ac 15:14-17 1Co 15:24
(8) The New covenant rests upon the sacrifice of Christ, and secures
the eternal blessedness, under the Abrahamic Covenant
# Ga 3:13-29
of all who believe. It is absolutely unconditional, and, since no
responsibility is by it committed to man, it is final and irreversible.
II. The relation of Christ to the eight covenants is as follows: (1) To
the Edenic Covenant, Christ, as the "second Man," the "last Adam"
# 1Co 15:45-47
takes the place over all things which the first Adam lost
# Col 2:10 Heb 2:7-8
(2) He is the "Seed of the woman" of the Adamic Covenant
# Ge 3:15 Joh 12:31 1Jo 3:8 Ga 4:4 Re 20:10
and fulfilled its conditions of toil
# Mr 6:3
and obedience.
(3) As the greatest son of Shem, in Him was fulfilled supremely the
promise to Shem in the Noahic Covenant
» See Note "Ge 9:1"
# Col 2:9
(4) He is the "Seed to whom the promises were made" in the Abrahamic
Covenant; the son of Abraham obedient unto death
# Ge 22:18 Ga 3:16 Php 2:8
(5) He lived sinlessly under the Mosaic covenant and bore for us its
curse
# Ga 3:10-13
(6) He lived obediently as a Jew in the land under the Palestinian
Covenant, and will yet perform it gracious promises
Deu 28.-30.9).
(7) He is the "Seed," "Heir," and "King" under the Davidic Covenant
# Mt 1:1 Lu 1:31-33
(8) His sacrifice is the foundation of the New Covenant
# Mt 26:28 1Co 11:25

Death, physical, Summary: (1) Physical death is a consequence of sin
# Ge 3:19
and the universality of death proves the universality of sin
# Ro 5:12-14
(2) Physical death affects the body only, and is neither cessation of
life nor of consciousness
» See Note "Hab 2:5"
» See Note "Lu 16:23"
# Re 6:9,10
(3) All physical death ends in the resurrection of the body. See
"Resurrection"
# Job 19:25
» See Note "1Co 15:52"
(4) Because physical death is a consequence of sin, it is not
inevitable to the redeemed
# Ge 5:24 1Co 15:51,52 1Th 4:15-17
(5) Physical death has for the believer a peculiar qualification. It
is called "sleep," because his body may be "awakened" at any moment
# Php 3:20,21 1Th 4:14-18
(6) The soul and spirit live, independently of the death of the body,
which is described as a "tabernacle" (tent), in which the "I" dwells,
and which may be put off
# 2Co 5:1-8 1Co 15:42-44 2Pe 1:13-15
(7) At the believer's death he is "clothed upon" with a "house from
heaven" pending the resurrection of the "earthly house," and is at
once "with the Lord."
# 2Co 5:1-8 Php 1:23 Lu 23:43

Cf
# Ps 40:6
the rule, applicable to all modifications of the form of
quotations in the N.T. from O.T. writings, is that the divine Author
of both Testaments is perfectly free, in using an earlier statement,
to recast the mere literary form of it. The variant form will be found
invariably to give the deeper meaning of the earlier statement.
