Steve's response: The above is incorrect. The Abrahamic covenant is an
everlasting covenant. Originally made with Abraham, then passed to Isaac and
his children, then to Jacob (Israel), and his 12 children, thus creating the
12 tribes. Each one of these tribes is part of the everlasting covenant.
Moses was a member of the Levite tribe only. There were still 11 tribes
left, that were and are a part of this never ending covenant.
Muz, where do your conclusions come from? Moses was part of another covenant
with God, the Mosaic Covenant. That Covenant is not an everlasting covenant,
and it did not do away with the Abrahamic covenant.
God bless,
Steve Goltra
P.S. A good book to start with is THE BLOOD COVENANT by H. Clay Trumbull.
This book, written by Dr. Trumbull in 1885. It is a 390 page book that
documents all of the blood covenant rituals around the globe. Also, what I
posted on the Blood Covenant would be helpful as well.
