Lesson 3

The Davidic Covenant

God entered into a covenant with David that would be fulfilled by Jesus in the New Covenant.

Lesson Vocabulary

  • Davidic Covenant
    :
    The covenant God entered into with David.
  • Characteristics of the Davidic Covenant
    :
    Six important features of God’s covenant with David. They are: God will make David the founder of a dynasty, God will make David’s descendants kings, God will have a father-son relationship with David’s descendants, David’s son will build a Temple as a dwelling place for God among His people, God will never withdraw His favor from David or his descendants, and David’s kingdom and dynasty will never end. Each of these features of the covenant are fulfilled by Jesus Christ.
  • Messiah
    :
    The Hebrew word for “anointed one.” All of the kings descended from David were anointed as a sign of their kingship. This made all of the kings in the line of David “messiahs.” God promised the Chosen People that He would send the Messiah to free them from sin. Jesus is the Son of David and God’s promised Messiah and Savior. (453)
