COURSE DESCRIPTION:
In this course, we will explore the key covenants of the Scriptures. We will dive deep into the biblical text to better understand how covenants shape the relationships between God, humanity, the nation of Israel, and Yeshua-followers today. From the Adamic Covenant in the Garden of Eden to Jeremiah’s prophecy about a New Covenant, we will do in-depth analysis of the text to gain a greater understanding of the promises and obligations that have shaped the biblical narrative. This course will also seek to navigate some current discussions in the messianic movement, including the relationship of the covenants to one another, the importance of Jewish identity, and the hope of the Messiah in the covenants.
