Covenant in the Old Testament
A covenant (berit in Hebrew) in the Old Testament is a solemn promise that is made binding by an oath. A covenant creates a relationship between two groups. This relationship is put on the right track through the conditions of the covenant: the obligations imposed upon one or both of the parties.
The covenant was, after family, the most important basis for relationships between people. It therefore plays a fundamental role in the history and religion of Israel.
