The language of covenant itself is not going to be prominent in the Lutheran tradition. It’s not to say it’s not there – even the phrase The Covenant of Grace” actually shows up a lot in historic Lutheran sources. I don’t see it much today but if you read Gerhard it’s is there a lot. If you read some of the guys that I really like to read like a lot of the American, more scholastic leaning thinkers like Adolf hennecke or Henry Ester Jacobs or George Henry Gerberding or Revere Franklin Widener, or probably my favorite Charles Krauth, those figures they all use that language of a covenant of grace and they tie it though specifically to the New Covenant and I haven’t seen them using the language so much with the Old Covenant or to speak about an overarching covenant of grace.
