And upon¹ the noblesª of the childrenª of Israelª he laidª° not¹ his hand:ª also they sawª°¹ God,ª and did eatª° and drink.ª°" {Exd 24:3-11} + "All¹ the heave offeringsª of the holy things,ª which¹ the childrenª of Israelª offerª° unto the LORD,ª have I givenª° thee, and thy sonsª and thy daughtersª with¹ thee, by a statuteª for ever:ª it¹ [is] a covenantª of saltª for everª beforeª the LORDª unto thee and to thy seedª with¹ thee." {Num 18:19} + "I have madeª° a covenantª with my chosen,ª I have swornª° unto Davidª my servant,ª ... For¹ the LORDª [is] our defence;ª and the Holy Oneª of Israelª [is] our king.ª" {Psa 89:3-18} + "Behold,¹ the daysª come,ª° saithª° the LORD,ª that I will makeª° a newª covenantª with¹ the houseª of Israel,ª and with¹ the houseª of Judah:ª ... And they shall teachª° no¹ more¹ every manª¹ his neighbour,ª and every manª¹ his brother,ª saying,ª° Knowª°¹ the LORD:ª for¹ they shall all¹ knowª° me, from the leastª¹ of them unto¹ the greatestª of them, saithª° the LORD:ª for¹ I will forgiveª° their iniquity,ª and I will rememberª° their sinª no¹ more.¹" {Jer 31:31-34} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª If¹ ye can breakª°¹ my covenantª of the day,ª and my covenantª of the night,ª and that there should not¹ be¹ dayª and nightª in their season;ª ... Thenª will I cast awayª° the seedª of Jacob,ª and Davidª my servant,ª [so] that I will not takeª°¹ [any] of his seedª¹ [to be] rulersª° over¹ the seedª of Abraham,ª Isaac,ª and Jacob:ª for¹ I will cause¹ their captivityª to return,ª°°° and have mercyª° on them." {Jer 33:20-26} + "Moreover I will makeª° a covenantª of peaceª with them; it shall be¹ an everlastingª covenantª with¹ them: and I will placeª° them, and multiplyª° them, and will setª° my sanctuaryª in the midstª of them for evermore.ª" {Ezk 37:26} + "To performª° the mercyª [promised] toª ourª fathers,ª andª to rememberª° his²¹ holyª covenant;ª" {Lke 1:72} + "Yeª areª° the childrenª of the¹ prophets,ª andª of the¹ covenantª whichª Godª madeª° withª ourª fathers,ª sayingª° untoª Abraham,ª Andª in thyª seedª shall²° allª the¹ kindredsª of the¹ earthª be blessed.ª°" {Act 3:25} + "Whoª areª° Israelites;ª to whomª [pertaineth] the¹ adoption,ª andª the¹ glory,ª andª the¹ covenants,ª andª the¹ giving of the law,ª andª the¹ serviceª [of God], andª the¹ promises;ª ... Whoseª [are] the¹ fathers,ª andª ofª whomª as concerningª the fleshª Christª [came], who²° is¹ overª all,ª Godª blessedª for² ever.ª¹ Amen.ª" {Rom 9:4-5} + "That is,ª° They which are the¹ childrenª of the¹ flesh,ª theseª [are] notª the childrenª of God:ª butª the¹ childrenª of the¹ promiseª are countedª° forª the seed.ª" {Rom 9:8} + "Nowª to Abrahamª andª hisª seedª were²° the¹ promisesª made.ª° He saithª° not,ª Andª to seeds,ª asª ofª many;ª butª asª ofª one,ª Andª to thyª seed,ª whichª isª° Christ.ª ... Andª thisª I say,ª° [that] the covenant,ª that was confirmed beforeª° ofª Godª inª Christ,ª the¹ law,ª which wasª° four hundredª andª thirtyª yearsª after,ª cannot² disannul,ª°¹ that² it should make²° the promise² of none effect.ª°¹¹" {Gal 3:16-17}
