Acts 3:25

Ye (umeiv). Emphatic position.

The covenant which God made (thv diaqhkhv hv o qeov dieqeto). Literally, "the covenant which God covenanted." Diaqhkh and dieqeto (second aorist middle indicative of diaqhmi) are the same root. See on Matthew 26:28. The covenant (agreement between two, dia, tiqhmi) was with Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3) and repeated at various times (Genesis 18:18; Genesis 22:18; Genesis 26:4, etc.). In Hebrews 9:15-18 the word is used both for covenant and will. The genitive relative hv attracted to case of the antecedent.
