They placed twelve stones from the Jordan at their encampment in Gilgal, as a reminder of the miracle that God had done for them in splitting the Jordan river (Joshua ch.3-4). See also:
The covenant which was renewed between God and the Israelites, was the covenant that God had made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
There are three covenants. Two which God made with Abraham (Genesis ch.15 and Genesis ch.17) and reiterated with Isaac and Jacob; and one with Abraham's Israelite descendants in the time of Moses after the Exodus.
1) In Genesis ch.15, the Covenant Between the Parts:
a) God informs Abraham of future events (the Egyptian exile)
b) God promises the land of Canaan (Israel) to Abraham's descendants
c) The covenant is finalized through a demonstration of God's presence (see Genesis 15:7-9 and 15:17).
2) In Genesis ch.17, the covenant of circumcision:
a) The promises of many descendants (17:2,3) and of inheriting the land of Canaan are repeated (17:8), but the main thing in this covenant is the promise that God will be the God of Abraham (17:7, 17:8).
b) God promises that Abraham and Sarah will have a son (17:15-16), whom they will name Isaac (17:19) and who will be the continuation of God's covenant with Abraham (17:21).
c) The covenant itself is manifested through circumcision, for Abraham and his descendants (17:10).
3) The covenant between God and the Israelite nation (see Exodus ch.19 and ch.24), was made in the time of Moses, with Moses serving as the messenger.
This covenant is one of obedience, to listen to God's voice (Exodus 19:5), which will include the entire Torah (24:12). God, for His part, promised to treasure the Israelites (Exodus 19:5, Deuteronomy 26:16-19). The covenant was manifested through God's giving the Ten Commandments (Exodus ch.19-20), and was finalized (on our part) through the offerings described in Exodus ch.24.

The Hebrews felt they had a covenant with God. Hebrews 8:10 "This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people"

The solemn agreement between God and the Israelites is known as the "Covenant" or the "Covenant of Moses." It outlined the terms of their relationship, including God's promises to the Israelites and their responsibilities in return.

The second covenant in the Bible is the covenant between God and Noah, commonly known as the Noahic Covenant. This covenant was established after the Great Flood and was a promise from God to never again destroy the world with a flood. It also included the sign of the rainbow as a symbol of this covenant.
The covenant was with God.
No. The covenant with the Jews is for all time and they are still His chosen people. This is irrespective of the disobedience and scoldings they have received from God over time - the covenant remains.
