The people in Jerusalem are just as corrupt as their ancestors who returned from exile 100 years ago. Malachi confronts their sins, pointing out that Israel cannot be faithful to the covenant God made with them. Yet God will not abandon His people, and promises a Messiah to the remnant who are still faithful to Him. This is the last Israel will hear from God, and 400 years will pass before the appearance of John the Baptist announcing the coming of Jesus.

Though written hundred of years apart, the books of Daniel and Revelation are counterparts and should be studied together for a more comprehensive picture of God’s redemptive plan, the future of the world, God’s victory over evil at the end of the world and a glimpse into the new heaven and new earth.

The Old Covenant has served its purpose, and it has been replaced by a better covenant (Heb 7:22). While the Old Covenant was still in effect in the Old Testament, the New Covenant was predicted in Jeremiah and Ezekiel. The New Covenant is the promise that God will forgive sin and restore fellowship with those whose hearts are turned toward Him. Jesus Christ is the mediator of this covenant, and His death on the cross is the basis of the promise. Today this New Covenant fulfills the triad of land, seed and blessing under the Abrahamic Covenant, and out of it we have received our current spiritual blessings. We are no longer under the Law but under grace (Rom 6:14-15)!
