| | The Covenant: God's Tabernacle with Men |
 | | To this we may add that the covenant could never be established with believers and their children, in their generations, if it were an agreement the ratification of which depends on the consent of man, or upon any condition man must fulfill. |
 | | That same covenant is revealed to Abraham, the friend of God, and father of believers, as running in the line of his generations, but as embracing, nevertheless, all the nations of the earth. |
 | | That covenant is revealed at Sinai, placing it, however, under the law, that sin might abound, and that the children of the promise, under the taskmaster, might earnestly look for the end of the law in the Christ that was to come. |
