Galatians 4:24 – How Many Covenants
There are only two covenants in contrast to the many covenants when contextually the topic is one replacing the other. The Noahaic covenant (Gen.6) was not replaced by the “New Covenant” (Heb.8), and therefore would not be considered ‘the first covenant” although it came first temporally. The language would be comparable to the second coming (Heb.9) not contextually related to the many comings mentioned in Revelation, or even the previous comings in the Old Testament.
