Summary:This article responds to Adam Gregerman’s article on covenant theology in recent Jewish–Catholic dialogue by arguing three points: (1) Scripture presents a multiplicity of covenants (rather than a singular “Old Covenant”), which coexist together in complementary ways. (2) This multiplicity produces dynamic tension among the covenants. (3) The tendency in recent theological discussion to describe the New Covenant as a fulfillment of its predecessors lacks a biblical basis.
