Moses acts as a covenant mediator for the brand-new nation of Israel. God uses the ancient Near Eastern Suzerain Vassal covenant structure to communicate this new relationship to his people. When we understand the components of an ancient Near Eastern covenant, we begin to see the underlying structure within the Biblical text. If we don't understand ANE Covenants, we miss the details the Bible communicates to us. Join us for this lesson as we explore the underlying structure of the Mosaic Covenant and how it helps us understand our relationship with God.Support Fig Tree Ministries: https://donorbox.org/support-figtree-ministries www.figtreeteaching.com Download the Class Handout: https://www.figtreeteaching.com/faith-lessons/mosaic-covenant#/Ancient Near East Covenant Structure Handout - https://www.figtreeteaching.com/faith-lessons/ane-covenant-example#/Concept of Covenant Handout - https://www.figtreeteaching.com/faith-lessons/concept-of-covenant-handout#/"Cutting a Covenant" Handout - https://www.figtreeteaching.com/faith-lessons/cutting-a-covenant-handout#/YouTube: https://youtu.be/A7FCgYYDb58Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7mh4v8e7FDwOoPhQd7bz7YReferences: James Pritchard, The Ancient Near East: an Anthology of Texts and Pictureshttps://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Near-East-Anthology-Pictures/dp/0691147264/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2UI44JGCG35R4&keywords=the+ancient+near+east+pritchard&qid=1685308401&sprefix=the+ancient+near+east%2Caps%2C99&sr=8-1Sandra Richter - The Epic of Eden - https://www.amazon.com/Epic-Eden-Christian-Entry-Testament/dp/0830825770/ref=sr_1_1?crid=20SSMDWP1WFBT&keywords=epic+of+eden&qid=1684020465&sprefix=epic+of+eden%2Caps%2C95&sr=8-1
