“According to the Dictionary of New Testament Theology, the six elements involved in covenant making are (1) the preamble mentioning the names of the partners; (2) a preliminary history of the relationship of those entering the covenant; (3) a basic declaration about the future relationship of the partners; (4) details of the new relationship; (5) an invocation of the respective gods worshipped by both sides to act as witnesses; (6) a pronouncement of curse and blessing (“Covenant”). … These steps have their counterparts in Benjamin’s speech. See … Mosiah 2:20–24, 32–33; 4:1–4; 7–11; 23–25; 5:11–12, 15; 6:3” (Welch and Ricks, “Complete Text of Benjamin’s Speech,” 598).
