" The Promise."

Inspired by;

Genesis 15 vs 5, 6

And he believed in Jehovah. And He counted it to him for righteousness.

" Original Covenant."

Inspired by;

Exodus 24 : 9,10,11

Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the leaders of Israel went up the mountain and they saw the God of Israel.
Beneath his feet was what looked like a pavement of sapphire, as blue as the sky.
God did not harm these leading men of Israel; they saw God, and then they ate and drank together.
