Referenced to Deuteronomy 30:3
<Eight Covenants:> vv. 1 - 9 (cp. Deu 28:63 - 68); 2 Sam 7:8. (Gen 2:16; Heb
8:8)
The Palestinian Covenant gives the conditions under which Israel entered the
land of promise. It is important to see that the nation has never as yet taken
the land under the unconditional Abrahamic Covenant (see Gen 12:2, note), nor
has it ever possessed the whole land (cp. Gen 15:18 with Num 34:1 -12). The
Palestinian Covenant is in seven parts: (1) dispersion for disobedience, v. 1 (Deu
28:63 - 68; see Gen 15:18, note); (2) the future repentance of Israel while in
the dispersion, v. 2; (3) the return of the LORD, v. 3 (Amos 9:9 - 15; Acts
15:14 - 17); (4) restoration to the land, v. 5 (Isa 11:11 - 12; Jer 23:3 - 8;
Ezek 37:21 - 25); (5) national conversion, v. 6 (Hos 2:14 - 16; Rom 11:26 - 27);
(6) the judgment of Israel's oppressors, v. 7 (Isa 14:1 - 2; Joel 3:1 - 8; Mat
25:31 - 46); and (7) national prosperity, v. 9 (Amos 9:11 - 15).
For notes on other major covenants, see: Edenic (Gen 2:16); Adamic (Gen 3:15);
Noahic (Gen 9:16); Abrahamic (Gen 12:2); Mosaic (Exo 19:5); Davidic (2 Sam
7:16); New (Heb 8:8).
