A covenant is an agreement between two people and involves promises on the part of each to the other. The concept of a covenant between God and His people is one of the central themes of the Bible. It also reflects God’s mercy and grace. Jeremiah discusses the new notion of a new covenant, one in which God’s law will be inscribed on our hearts. Scriptures referenced include Jeremiah 17:10; Genesis 9:1-17; Genesis 12:1-3; Exodus 19:8; Jeremiah 31; Jeremiah 1:10; 2 Corinthians 3:6; Romans 7:6; Jeremiah 18:5–11; and Jeremiah 33:14–26.
