What was the sign and significance of Gods covenant with Abraham?
The sign of God’s covenant with Abraham was circumcision of all of Abraham’s male descendants through his son Isaac. This was the sign of the fleshly covenant with Abraham that through his seed all nations of the earth would be blessed. In Galatians 3:16 the apostle Paul writes, “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to thy seeds which are many; but as of one, And to thy seed which is Christ.
