The Everlasting Covenant: A Comprehensive Study of Genesis 17
The account of Genesis 17 represents one of the most significant theological milestones in the Old Testament. It is here that we witness the transition from a promise to a formal, sealed covenant. In this pivotal chapter, God reveals Himself as El Shaddai (God Almighty), sovereignly changing the identities of Abram and Sarai to Abraham and Sarah, and establishing the physical sign of circumcision.
This study delves into the deep exegetical nuances of the text, exploring the nature of God’s faithfulness and the requirements of those called into a relationship with Him. We uncover the eternal weight of the “Everlasting Covenant” and its implications for the lineage of faith.
