Jeffrey W. Moore Bibli_410_D01 May 5, 2012 ABRAHAMIC COVENANT CHART INTRODUCTION The institution of the Abrahamic Covenant is found in Genesis Chapters 12-50. Initially understood by Abram to be fulfilled in his time, it is soon established to be an everlasting covenant to God’s chosen people. The understanding of this covenant is unfolded through historical events under the providence of God’s control. Many times it seems to be unraveling by man’s lack of faith and obedience, only to later be revealed that God indeed is working “behind the scenes” to fulfill the promise. Three things are at the heart of the covenant, of which is a one sided promise; Land (Canaan), Blessings (to and through the Abrahamic lineage), and Descendants (of which all nations and people are blessed/cursed).
Spanning through the books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, this time period begins around 1400 B.C. and ends approximately 1445 B.C. . During this era, God calls Moses to speak to the Pharaoh of Egypt and ask for the release of the Hebrew people so that they can go to the promise land of Canaan. God later parts the Red Sea to allow the Hebrews to flee from the Egyptian army.
So the trunk of these three religions is Abraham and the descendants or branches of the trunk are his two sons Isaac and Ishmael. Both Jews and Christians believe their religion emerged from Isaac because their founders Moses and Jesus are decedents of Isaac. Muslims believe though that their roots are traced back to Abraham’s other son Ishmael. And that Muhammad their founder is a decedent of Ishmael and created Islam. How are the three major holy books of the monotheistic faiths both

The burning bush marks the beginning of God’s direct intervention into the affairs of history. It is the basis for the call of Moses to return to Egypt as Israel’s deliverer. It is the beginning of the end of Egyptian oppression. The burning bush made not only a profound impact upon Moses and the nation Israel, but it also continued to serve as one of those key events in history—the significance of which was not lost on Israel in the generations which followed. This passage of Scripture is one that must have been well known to the Jews of Jesus’ day.

One possibility is either King Solomon and/or Josiah preemptively hid the ark before the Babylonian invasion with its present whereabouts unknown. The other theory is that the ark was taken by the Ethiopian ruler, Menelik I, son of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba where it remains hidden away in a church.
