His definition of a covenant is somewhat off. I would suggest Witsius. You can have a taste of it here and read the introduction here.
The whole work by Witsius is available online here:

The Economy of the Covenants -- Herman Witsius

I would also recommend John L. Girardeau, The Federal Theology: Its Import and Regulative Influence; Edward Fisher, The Marrow of Modern Divinity; and the writings of Thomas Boston, Thomas Watson, Wilhelmus a'Brakel, and others in that vein on this subject.

Here is a previous thread concerning what books on covenant theology to read:
