Study Bible

Book ◦ Chapter

But I will remember the covenant I made with you
This phrase highlights God's faithfulness to His promises. The covenant referred to here is likely the Mosaic Covenant, established at Mount Sinai, where God chose Israel as His people (Exodus 19:5-6). Despite Israel's unfaithfulness, God remains committed to His covenant. This reflects God's character as one who is steadfast and unchanging (Malachi 3:6). The concept of God remembering is not about recalling forgotten information but about acting on His promises.

in the days of your youth
The "days of your youth" refers to the early period of Israel's relationship with God, particularly during the Exodus and the wilderness wanderings. This was a formative time when Israel was being shaped as a nation under God's guidance. It evokes the imagery of a young bride, as seen inJeremiah 2:2, where God remembers the devotion of Israel's youth. This period is marked by initial faithfulness and the establishment of a covenant relationship.

and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you
This points to a future covenant that surpasses the previous ones, often interpreted as the New Covenant prophesied inJeremiah 31:31-34. This everlasting covenant is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who establishes a new relationship between God and humanity through His death and resurrection (Hebrews 9:15). It signifies a covenant that is not based on the law but on grace, offering eternal life and a restored relationship with God. This covenant is characterized by internal transformation and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, as seen inEzekiel 36:26-27.

Persons / Places / Events

5.Everlasting Covenant
A future promise of restoration and renewal, pointing towards a new relationship with God.

Teaching Points

God's Faithfulness
Despite Israel's unfaithfulness, God remains committed to His promises. This teaches us about the unchanging nature of God's love and faithfulness.

Covenant Relationship
Understanding the concept of covenant helps us grasp the depth of our relationship with God, which is based on His promises rather than our performance.

Hope of Restoration
The promise of an everlasting covenant offers hope for restoration and renewal, encouraging us to trust in God's future plans for us.

Repentance and Renewal
Just as Israel was called to return to God, we are invited to repent and renew our commitment to Him, knowing He is always ready to restore us.

Christ as Fulfillment
The everlasting covenant finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ, who establishes a new and eternal relationship with believers.

Lists and Questions

Top 10 Lessons from Ezekiel 16

How does Ezekiel 16:46–48 align with historical records that do not portray Sodom or Samaria as more righteous than Jerusalem?

How do we reconcile Ezekiel 19:10-14's portrayal of the vine's destruction with other biblical promises of Judah's enduring lineage?

How can Ezekiel 37:25-28's everlasting covenant and sanctuary be understood when there seems to be no clear historical or present-day fulfillment matching this depiction?

In Genesis 13:14-17, God promises Abram that his descendants will inherit the land 'forever'; how can this be reconciled with later biblical or historical events suggesting otherwise?

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(60)I will remember my covenant.--The remembrance of God's covenant is made the basis of His mercy to His penitent people (Leviticus 26:42-45) from the beginning, and it is often spoken of as an everlasting covenant. In the New Testament (Luke 1:54-55;Luke 1:72-73, &c.) this covenant is regarded as fulfilled in the Christian dispensation. At the same time, the Christian covenant is described as new inJeremiah 31:31-34; it was both the continuation and designed fulfilment of the old, and in its superiority and plainer revelation of the Divine will was new. Hence the contrast betweenMycovenant here andThycovenant in the following verse. The covenant to be afterwards established shall be "an everlasting covenant."
