Republication is form of Christian covenant theology where the works principle of the covenant of works was republished in some way in the Mosaic covenant.[2][3] The view is popular among academics of the Westminster Seminary California and was popularized by American theologian Meredith Kline. Kline taught that the Mosaic covenant included a typological republication of the covenant of works, where the Israelites had to maintain possession of the promised land by their "typological merit".[3][4] Republication is similar to the Lutheran views of the Mosaic covenant.[5]
