Look-King! …'Law Meets Gospel In The Promise Of Christ, Jewish Messiah/King & Spirit'
The Davidic covenant and its fulfilment in Jesus [the] Christ is the way that God will restore humanity to the image and likeness of God so that the oft repeated words, "I will be your God and you will be my people" can be justly said of not only believing Israel, but for the Nations to believe.
By God's own loving kindness and faithfulness (hesed and emet), prefigured in a covenant partner, place and nation, we find both the shadow of King and Spirit in David, Israel and temple, and all of this ultimately for the blessing of the whole of humanity, history and eternity in Christ the Lord.
The covenants with Adam at Creation, with Noah, Abraham and David both point to the necessity of a renewed covenant faithfulness between God and Man, but do so over against the utter failure of sinful humanity to actually do it. To love God and neighbour. According to our own righteousness by the law of God we are dead ducks. Yet this is precisely what David is hearing God promise him, an eternal kingdom where righteousness reigns in loving relationship between Heaven and earth, and God and Adam.
