A  “And in your descendants all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” (Ge.22:18)

A  “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.” (Ga.3:16)

D  “¹¹…The Lord also declares to you that the Lord will make a house for you. …¹³He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. …¹⁶And your house and your kingdom shall endure before Me forever; your throne shall be established forever.” (2Sa.7:11-17 select)

P “³³As I live, declares the Lord God, surely with a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm and with wrath poured out, I shall be king over you…³⁷And I shall make you pass under the rod, and I shall bring you into the bond of the covenant;…⁴¹and I shall prove Myself holy among you in the sight of the nations. ⁴²And you will know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the land which I swore to give to your forefathers. …⁴⁴Then you will know that I am the Lord when I have dealt with you for My name’s sake, not according to your evil ways or according to your corrupt deeds, O house of Israel, declares the Lord God.” (Ek.20:33-44 select)

N  “³¹Behold, days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, ³²not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out o the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them, declares the Lord. ³³But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord, I will put My law within them, and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. ³⁴And they shall not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall 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.” (Je.31:31-40, select)

A  “²And I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly. ³And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, ⁴As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations. ⁵No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I will make you the father of a multitude of nations. …⁷And 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. ⁸And 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.” (Ge.17:1-8 select)

N  “⁶But now He has ordained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises. ⁷For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second. …¹³When He said, ‘A new covenant,’ He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear.” (He.8:6-13 select).

D  “²⁰Thus says the Lord, If you can break My covenant the day, and My covenant for the night, so that day and night will not be at their appointed time, ²¹then My covenant may also be broken with David My servant that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levitical priests, My ministers. (Je.33:20-21; see 31:35-37)

Abraham’s land promises are developed in the Palestinian covenant; the seed promises are developed in the Davidic covenant; and the blessing promises are developed in the New covenant.
