The Palestinian Covenant

Part Two
Bibliology: 14 THE COVENANTS OF SCRIPTURE
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker

This covenant is in reality a confirmation and amplification of the land promise of the Abrahamic Covenant. It is stated in Deuteronomy 30:1-10. Dwight Pentecost has this to say about this covenant:

An analysis of this passage will show that there are seven main features in the program there unfolded:

(1) The nation will be plucked off the land for its unfaithfulness (Deut. 28:63-68; 30:1-3);

(2) there will be a future repentance of Israel (Deut. 28:63-68; 30:1-3);

(3) their Messiah will return (Deut. 30:3-6);

(4) Israel will be restored to the land (Deut. 30:5);

(5) Israel will be converted as a nation (Deut. 30:4-8; Rom. 11:26, 27);

(6) Israel’s enemies will be judged (Deut. 30:7);

(7) the nation will then receive her full blessing (Deut. 30:9).⁹
