Review for Lesson 8:

1. The *Ten Commandments Covenant* was given to Israel at Mount Sinai.

2. Israel (God`s people) continued to break God`s Ten Commandments Covenant again and again.

3. God predicted a new and different covenant to be made with Israel because they had broken His Covenant.

4. God`s prediction came true when Jesus came (according to Hebrews 8).

5. The cross of Jesus is the fulfilment of the Old Covenant.

6. Jesus did not destroy the Old Covenant. He fulfilled it and brought it to its end.

Since the Ten Commandments Covenant is ended and it contained "The Law", are we under any law of God?
