Covenant. An agreement, contract, or written promise between two individuals that frequently constitutes a pledge to do or refrain from doing something. The individual making the promise or agreement is known as the covenantor, and the individual to whom such promise is made is called the covenantee.
The Greek word Î´Î¹Î±Î¸Î·ÎºÎ· (diatheke), usually translated âcovenantâ in English versions of the Bible, is a legal term denoting a formal and legally binding declaration of benefits to be given by one party to another, with or without conditions attached.ev. 26:15 ff. and Deut. 31:20), but this structural change in the covenant-revelation can be explained in connection with the wider promulgation â it is to extend to the whole nation of Israel â of the covenant, by means of which the covenant-relationship takes on a wider and more external meaning.
