In this program we look at the Abrahamic Covenant, its repetition throughout Scripture and what the covenant specifically includes. The covenant is initially found in Genesis 12:1-3. The hostility of Satan towards the fulfillment of the purpose of God for the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is at the root of what we know today as anti-Semitism, or more simply, hatred of the Jews.
