The Six Covenants

Out of The Six Covenants:

By Opinion, What one is The Best?

Out of the well known six covenants, which includes the Adamic, Noahic, Abrahamic, Mosaic, Davidic, and the New covenant, there is only one that is the best, which can be debatable on the person. Then there is also a covenant that not a lot of people know of, it is called the Palestinian covenant which is found in Deuteronomy. Covenant comes from the Latin word “convenire” which means to come together. A covenant is an agreement between two parties. It can be between God and His people or between two people in general. All of the covenants are connected because they are made by God to make a promise to one of His people. In return, the people of God have to follow His rules to fulfill

God had told Noah, that he was going to flood the Earth in a few days. Noah’s job was to build an ark to hold two of every species of animals, one male and one female. God then flooded the Earth and all who was on the ark survived. In the Bible, it says that it was only Noah’s family and the animals on the ark. ``... you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you`` (Genesis 6: 18). The covenant is made between man, God and every living creature.

In the covenant, God promised seven blessings. This includes a sure land for Israel forever, a Davidic kingdom and house forever, meaning that there would be always be a descendant on the throne of King David.
