In this course, we will examine key covenants in the Scriptures, delving into the biblical text to better understand how these covenants define the relationships between God, humanity, Israel, and followers of Yeshua today. We will start with the Adamic Covenant in the Garden of Eden and conclude with Jeremiah’s prophecy of a New Covenant. Through this course, we will develop a better understanding of the debates surrounding covenants in Scripture, how they relate to one another, and their impact on Jewish identity today. By the end, you will gain a clearer understanding of the broader narrative of Scripture, the messianic hope inherent in these covenants, and how to properly respond to supersessionist claims today.
