When Israel was at Mount Sinai about to receive the Law, God said, "Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the people of Israel: You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine; and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words that you shall speak to the people of Israel.”

It's the same thing as a commandment. | |
It's like a sacrament, but older. | |

It's a special prayer revealed by God with seven petitions, an introduction, and a doxology. |
Question 12 Explanation:
Excellent. The 10 Commandments are often called the Mosaic Covenant because God gave it through Moses and required them to obey. God also made promises to them for keeping (obeying) the covenant.

He said, "Fear the Lord, for it is better to fear than to die." | |
He said, “Do not fear, for God has come to test you, that the fear of him may be before you, that you may not sin." | |
He said, "Keep yourselves from sinning...and good luck with that." |

Question 15 |
What is interesting about the way in which God made covenants with His people?
They made the covenants in terms of money and had to promise to pay back money for moral wrongs they did (transgressions). | |
They "cut" covenants, which required the death of an animal, such as a pigeon or a calf being cut in two pieces. If either of the two parties making the agreement broke the covenant, the fate of the animal would be their fate (death). |
Question 15 Explanation:
See for example Jeremiah 34:18

God makes us die to pay for our disobedience. | |
God sent His own Son (Jesus) to die for the failed obedience of His own people and the sins of the whole world. |
