JEREMIAH 31:31-34:
- This covenant would not be
like the one He made with their fathers- the Sinai covenant. - The
people had broken that covenant - In the new covenant, God would put
His law within them, - He would be their God, and they would be His
people, - The people would not need to be taught to “know the
Lord”. - They would all know God, both great and small,
- He would forgive their iniquity, and would remember their sins no more.
EZEKIEL 36:25-28
- He would sprinkle clean water
on them, - He would cleanse them of idols,
- He would put
in a new heart and a new spirit, - He would replace the stony heart with the
heart of flesh, - He would put his spirit in them and cause them to walk in
his ways, - He shall make them dwell in the land which he gave their
fathers, - They should be his people and he would be their God.
Benefits of the covenant to Israel:
- God would gather Israel from countries that had taken them
captives in God’s anger, - He would bring them back and make them
dwell in safety, - They would be His people; He would be their God.
- He would give them one heart,
- He would make them fear God for ever for
their benefit and that of their children, - God would make an
everlasting covenant with them and would always do them good, - God
would plant them in the given land in faithfulness with all His heart and soul.
