Who was promised the new covenant?

Part of a series: questions that make more sense when the Tanakh and the New Testament are read together.

Jeremiah's new covenant is made with the house of Israel and the house of Judah (Jeremiah 31:31–34) — not with a new people replacing the old one. Yeshua says the cup at the table is that same new covenant (Luke 22:20).

So: who is the new covenant actually promised to, and who is invited into it? Bring your sources.

  • Jeremiah 31:31–34
  • Luke 22:20
