But there are few research results related to the Bible itself, especially on some of the basic concepts in the Bible or not paying appropriate attention to the concept, but these concepts are the key to understanding the Bible or Christianity."Covenant" idea is run through a main line in the Hebrew Bible, understanding "covenants" idea, an overview of Israel’s religious status in their hearts what God-man relationship is the relationship between.

Through the "covenants" research to carry out research on Hebrew culture, combs not only "covenants" concept of development course and the different development stages of realisation forms, and further noted that "covenants" thinking with the Israel national mutual relationship between social change.
