What Are We to Make of IsraelSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg explores the Abrahamic Covenant, discussing its significance in relation to the land and the seed promised to Abraham. He challenges the common assumption that supporting Israel means unquestioningly supporting its claims to the land, suggesting that the covenant should be understood in a broader context. Gregg delves into the concept of covenants and their types and antitypes, drawing connections to Christ as the ultimate fulfillment. He also highlights how Israel, as a nation and as a chosen people, is typified and foreshadowed in the Old Testament, shedding light on its significance in the New Testament.
