It's my understanding that a number of reformed theologians (Owen, Witsius, Boston) held that the Mosaic covenant, though it be part of the COG, was also a recaptulation of the covenant of works that God made with Adam. This is new for me.
I thought that the Mosaic covenant was part of the COG, but simply under the outward administration of law (ex. 10 commandments).
I've never heard of a recapitulation of the covenant of works. Can anyone comment on how this works and provide any historical detail to the thinking of the reformers on this issue?
How would this effect my preaching Sunday by Sunday? Thanks.
