New Covenant.

The New Covenant is an interpretation of biblical language that refers to a spiritual contract between God and his people after the Old Covenant was broken. The New Covenant may be seen as either a renewal or replacement of the previous covenant. This original Old Covenant had been broken by humankind's failure to faithfully obey the rules set out by God. However, the New Covenant restored God's commitment to humanity despite its inherently sinful nature. It is a central theological point in establishing the relationship between God and humanity. The ultimate meaning of this New Covenant, however, differs between the Jewish and Christian faiths.
