One promise made by God in the Old Testament is that he would never ever destroy the earth with a 40 day flood. The sign of the promise is the rainbow.

Gen 9:11 With these words I make my covenant with you: I promise that never again will all living beings be destroyed by a flood; never again will a flood destroy the earth.

Just a flood not a 40 day flood

God promised to give the land of Canaan to Abraham (Genesis ch.17). This was reiterated to Isaac (Genesis ch.26) and Jacob (Genesis 28:13). He also promised to do miracles for the Jewish people (Exodus ch.34) and to reward the righteous and punish the wicked (Deuteronomy 28:69, referring to all of ch.28).

One promise of The Bible is eternal life; and the promise that if we are saved by Jesus and repent of the sin that He died to take away we will live eternally on earth.

What is the difference between the great commandment in the New Testament and the Old Testament?

In the Hebrew Bible, the commandment is: Love your neighbor as yourself; I am the LORD your God.

It should be noted that it was the defining belief among the Pharisees that acts of loving-kindness are "greater" than ritual laws.
