The meaning of Works, Covenant of in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
entered into by God with Adam as the representative of the human race (Compare Genesis 9:11,12; 17:1-21), so styled because perfect obedience was its condition, thus distinguishing it from the covenant of grace. (See COVENANT OF WORKS .)
