Hebrew Studies: Covenant Passages in OT

This fall we are going to be reading texts in the Hebrew Bible that talk about “covenant.” Alongside the study of these Hebrew texts on the Creation, Noahic, Abrahamic, Mosaic, Davidic, and New Covenants, we will be reading Gentry/Wellum’s Kingdom through Covenant.
