The New Covenant allows people outside of the Israelite tribes to be grafted into that holiness through accepting the New Covenant.There is also the perspective that the New Testament is a replacement for the Old Testament. Christian groups that espouse this perspective are mostly Protestants. The underlying premise was that God granted holiness to one group of people, the Israelites, who failed to keep his laws. Therefore, God was required to create a New Covenant with the whole world to better bring holiness into it. This law eclipses and replaces the Old Covenant because the Old Covenant was a failure.
