David sought the Lord after his first failure to bring up the Ark
• 1 Chronicles 15:2 (NASB) 2 Then David said, "No one is to carry the ark of God
but the Levites; for the LORD chose them to carry the ark of God and to minister
to Him forever."
David was specifically told by God that Solomon would build a temple
for the Lord
• 1 Chronicles 22:7-9 (NASB) 7 David said to Solomon, "My son, I had intended to
build a house to the name of the LORD my God. 8 "But the word of the LORD
came to me, saying, 'You have shed much blood and have waged great wars; you
shall not build a house to My name, because you have shed so much blood on the
earth before Me. 9 'Behold, a son will be born to you, who shall be a man of rest;
and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his name shall be
Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days.

Genesis 1:26-28 (NASB) 26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over
the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that
creeps on the earth." 27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created
them. 28 God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the
fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."
Genesis 2:16-17 (NASB) 16 The LORD God commanded the man, saying, "From any tree of the garden you may eat freely;
17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die."
Characteristics:
• Conditional
• Between God and Adam
• Governing man’s creation and life in Edenic innocence
• Regulated man’s dominion and subjugation of the earth
• Presented a simple test of obedience and a death penalty.
• Ended shortly after it was made when Adam and Eve ate of theTree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Genesis 3:14-19 (NASB) 14 The LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, Cursed are you more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the
field;On your belly you will go, And dust you will eat All the days of your life; 15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her
seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel." 16 To the woman He said, "I will greatly multiplyYour pain in childbirth, In pain you will
bring forth children; Yet your desire will be for your husband, And he will rule over you." 17 Then toAdam He said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your
wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat from it'; Cursed is the ground because of you; In toil you will eat of it
All the days of your life. 18 "Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; And you will eat the plants of the field; 19 By the sweat of your faceYou will eat bread,
Till you return to the ground, Because from it you were taken; For you are dust, And to dust you shall return."

Genesis 8:21- 9:17 (NASB) 21 The LORD smelled the soothing aroma; and the LORD said to Himself, "I will never again curse
the ground on account of man, for the intent of man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy every living
thing, as I have done. 22 "While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, And cold and heat, And summer and winter,And
day and night Shall not cease." 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the
earth. 2 "The fear of you and the terror of you will be on every beast of the earth and on every bird of the sky; with everything
that creeps on the ground, and all the fish of the sea, into your hand they are given. 3 "Every moving thing that is alive shall be
food for you; I give all to you, as I gave the green plant. 4 "Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 5 "Surely I
will require your lifeblood; from every beast I will require it. And from every man, from every man's brother I will require the
life of man. 6 "Whoever sheds man's blood, By man his blood shall be shed, For in the image of God He made man. 7 "As for
you, be fruitful and multiply; Populate the earth abundantly and multiply in it." 8 Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons
with him, saying, 9 "Now behold, I Myself do establish My covenant with you, and with your descendants after you;"

earth with you; of all that comes out of the ark, even every beast of the earth. 11 "I establish My covenant with you; and all
flesh shall never again be cut off by the water of the flood, neither shall there again be a flood to destroy the earth." 12 God said,
"This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all
successive generations; 13 I set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth. 14 "It
shall come about, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow will be seen in the cloud, 15 and I will remember My
covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood
to destroy all flesh. 16 "When the bow is in the cloud, then I will look upon it, to remember the everlasting covenant between
God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth." 17 And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant
which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth."

Genesis 12:1-3 (NASB) 1 Now the LORD said to Abram, "Go forth from your country, And from your relatives And from your
father's house,To the land which I will show you; 2 And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your
name great; And so you shall be a blessing; 3 And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in
you all the families of the earth will be blessed."
Genesis 13:14-17 (NASB) 14 The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, "Now lift up your eyes and look
from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward; 15 for all the land which you see, I will
give it to you and to your descendants forever. 16 "I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can
number the dust of the earth, then your descendants can also be numbered. 17 "Arise, walk about the land through its length
and breadth; for I will give it to you."

Genesis 15:1-7 (NASB) 1 After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, "Do not fear, Abram, I
am a shield to you;Your reward shall be very great." 2 Abram said, "O Lord GOD, what willYou give me, since I am childless,
and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?" 3 And Abram said, "SinceYou have given no offspring to me, one born in
my house is my heir." 4 Then behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, "This man will not be your heir; but one who
will come forth from your own body, he shall be your heir." 5 And He took him outside and said, "Now look toward the heavens,
and count the stars, if you are able to count them." And He said to him, "So shall your descendants be." 6 Then he believed in
the LORD; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness. 7 And He said to him, "I am the LORD who brought you out of Ur of
the Chaldeans, to give you this land to possess it."

Genesis 17:1-8 (NASB) 1 Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am
God Almighty;Walk before Me, and be blameless. 2 "I will establish My covenant between Me and you, And I will multiply you
exceedingly." 3 Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, 4 "As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you
will be the father of a multitude of nations. 5 "No longer shall your name be called Abram, But your name shall be Abraham;
For I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6 "I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you,
and kings will come forth from you. 7 "I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you
throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you. 8 "I will give to
you and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I
will be their God."

17 indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on

Galatians 3:16 (NASB) 16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, "And to seeds," as
referring to many, but rather to one, "And to your seed," that is, Christ.
Galatians 3:28-29 (NASB) 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor
female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendants, heirs
according to promise.
Hebrews 11:13-16 (NASB) 13 All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having
welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14 For those who
say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. 15 And indeed if they had been thinking of that
country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But as it is, they desire a better country,
that is, a heavenly one.Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them.

Exodus 20:1-17 (NASB) 1 Then God spoke all these words, saying, 2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the
land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 "You shall have no other gods before Me. 4 "You shall not make for yourself an
idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. 5 "You shall not
worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children,
on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love
Me and keep My commandments. 7 "You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave
him unpunished who takes His name in vain.

2 Corinthians 3:7-9 (NASB) 7 But if the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of
Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, 8 how will the ministry of

that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, "THE RIGHTEOUS MAN SHALL LIVE BY FAITH." 12 However,
the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, "HEWHO PRACTICESTHEM SHALL LIVE BYTHEM." 13 Christ redeemed us from the
curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, "CURSED IS EVERYONEWHO HANGS ON ATREE"— 14 in
order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the

Characteristics:
• Legal conditional covenant
• Given solely to the Nation of Israel.
• Consisted of theTen Commandments (Ex 20:1-26), social judgments (Ex 21:1; 24:11) and religious ordinances (Ex 24:12-
31:18).
• Frequently referred to as “the Law”.
• Spiritually, it was a conditional covenant of works.
• Due to its impossible requirements, it is a ministry of ‘condemnation’ and ‘death’ (2 Cor 3:7-9), designed to lead the
transgressor to redemption in Christ.
• Ended with the death of Christ in ~33AD. (The end of the covenant did not negate God’s Laws, but did end the religious
ordinances).

and on their heart I will write it; and I will be theirGod, and they shall be My people. 34 "They will not teach again, each man his
neighbor and each man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of
them," declares the LORD, "for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more."

of you; 28 for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins. 29 "But I say to you, I will
not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom."

Luke 22:19-22 (NASB) 19 And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying,
"This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me." 20 And in the same way He took the cup after they
had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood. 21 "But behold, the hand of the one
betraying Me is with Mine on the table. 22 "For indeed, the Son of Man is going as it has been determined; but woe to that

Hebrews 8:7-13 (NASB) 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a
second. 8 For finding fault with them, He says, "BEHOLD, DAYS ARE COMING, SAYSTHE LORD,WHEN IWILL EFFECT A

Divine Covenants
Characteristics of the New Covenant:
• Unconditional blessing based upon the finished redemption of Christ.
• Secures blessing for all believers, flowing from the Abrahamic Covenant (Gal 3:13-20), including those of the Abrahamic
and Davidic Covenants.
• Its fullest implementation is either in or after the Millennium.
• This covenant is unconditional, final and irreversible, and although it was announced ~580BC, it applies to all who are
saved by faith in the Messiah from Adam onward.
New Covenant ~33 AD, unconditional): Grace

Conclusions
• God has historically offered both conditional and unconditional covenants.
• The promise of a savior passed fromAdam to Abraham to David
• The Davidic covenant was unconditional
• The Davidic covenant was another predecessor to the New Covenant by which
all the world would be blessed
• Regulates the temporal and eternal rule of David’s Posterity.
• Secured in perpetuity the Davidic dynasty and kingdom.
• Fulfilled in Christ as the Savior and Israel’s coming King
• God’s sovereign plan has not changed, even though successive
covenants/dispensations have changed how we view and interact with God
