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.
