“The two most important covenants in Tanakh involve God's pacts with Abraham and Moses.

God will bless them if they comply and punish them if they refuse.” MosesAbrahamTanakhCovenants Book:The Abrahamic Religions: A Very Short Introduction: A Very Short Introduction Source: The Abrahamic Religions: A Very Short Introduction: A Very Short Introduction
