"Behold, days are coming,” declares YAHWEH, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares YAHWEH. "But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares YAHWEH, “I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their ELOHIM, and they shall be My people.
"They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, ‘Know YAHWEH,’ for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares YAHWEH, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.” Jeremiah 31:31-34

Star of David Represents the 12 (twelve) TRIBES OF ISRAEL. “All are the twelve tribes of Israel and this is what their father said to them when He blessed them. He blessed them, every one with the blessing appropriate to Him”. Gen. 49:28
“And I will make you a great nation and I will bless you, and make your name great and so you shall be a blessing; And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who cursed I will curse”. Gen. 12:2-3
In Hebrew, the Star of David is called Magen David, the Shield of David because it’s made up to two triangular shields lying on top of one another. In the time of David, around 1000 BC, this was a common shape for military shields. The oldest representation of a Star of David still in existence appears on a 7th century BC seal. The Star of David on the synagogue in Capernaum dates to 350 AD.
There are many theories about the meaning of the Star of David. For example, because one triangle points down and other up, some see it as linking the visible and invisible world, i.e., ELOHIMdrawing near to men, and men to ELOHIM. Others see the six outer triangular shapes as representative of the six working days, with Shabbat (the Sabbath) – the day of rest – in the center.
The Star of David is also known as the “Star of the Messiah” because the Bible says that a star will rise out of Jacob (Numbers 24:17). Over the centuries, Jews have kept watch for the Star of the Messiah from the house of David, which is where the name Star of David, which is where the name Star of David came from.
Because Yeshua (YAHSHUAH) was from the House of David, the Star of David served as a symbol to the early haMASSIACHians of the link with their Jewish brothers (represented by a menorah [represented by the Ichthys [fish]).
They cited Revelation 22:16
“I, YAHSHUAH, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star.”
A symbol representing the rebirth of the nation of Israel in accordance with the promises of ELOHIM. When the wise men “saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy” (Matthew 2:10); it alerted them to the coming of the Messiah. In the same way, the star in Israel’s flag announces the (second) coming of the Messiah. - Ludwig Schneider -
Nature: Israel to receive new hearts from God
‘I will give them a heart to know Me, for I am YAHWEH; and they will be My people, and I will be their ELOHIM, for they will return to Me with their whole heart. Jeremiah 24:7
"I bought the field which was at Anathoth from Hanamel my uncle’s son, and I weighed out the silver for him, seventeen shekels of silver. Jeremiah 32:9
A covenant written on hearts. YAHWEH then made an amazing announcement: “The day will come... when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and Judah” (31:31). This covenant would be unlike the present Mosaic covenant (31:32), in that ELOHIMwould “write” it on his people’s hearts (31:33).
It would bring about a new kind of relationship with ELOHIMand a permanent remission of sin (31:34). While the NT clearly identifies this New Covenant as ELOHIM’s promise of forgiveness through the death of haMASSIACH on the cross, it will be offered to Israel in a special way during the Millennium (see exposition on Rom. 11:11-32 and on Heb. 8:1-13; see also Biblical Covenants, Isa. 59:20-21; Ezek. 16:60-63; 37:26-28).

For finding fault with them, He says, “BEHOLD, DAYS ARE COMING, SAYS YAHWEH,WHEN I WILL EFFECT A NEW COVENANT WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND WITH THE HOUSE OF JUDAH; NOT LIKE THE COVENANT WHICH I MADE WITH THEIR FATHERS ON THE DAY WHEN I TOOK THEM BY THE HAND TO LEAD THEM OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT; FOR THEY DID NOT CONTINUE IN MY COVENANT, AND I DID NOT CARE FOR THEM, SAYS YAHWEH.
"FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS YAHWEH: I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM ON THEIR HEARTS. AND I WILL BE THEIR ELOHIM, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. "AND THEY SHALL NOT TEACH EVERYONE HIS FELLOW CITIZEN, AND EVERYONE HIS BROTHER, SAYING, ‘KNOW YAHWEH, ‘FOR ALL WILL KNOW ME, FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST OF THEM. "FOR I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR INIQUITIES, AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE.” Hebrews 8:8-12

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us ; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty ELOHIM, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
