"To thee and thy seed," of course.

The Abrahamic Covenant was to be administered to professing believers and their households, yet it was made with the singular-seed, Christ, and in him with the elect.

But here is the distinction that always comes up in credo/paedo debates. Baptistic covenant theology would say that, although Christ is the Savior of all the OT saints, He did not die for all in the Old Covenant.

But Christ did die for all whom the covenant was established. That’s the point; the covenant was established with the elect in Christ, even under the old. There's been no change in the establishment of the covenant, so there can be no change in its administration.

Based on Jeremiah 31/Hebrews 8, Christ died for all in the New Covenant. Hence, this is why it is called a better covenant built on better promises.

Yes, Christ died for all that the New Covenant is established with, but that’s not what makes the new better than the old, for the old was established with the elect as well.

Yes, no, maybe, I give up? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
