This isn’t about Bible periods or dispensations but about the Covenants of God to man effecting redemption.

Check out Hahn's background.

Hahn's in italics, modern pre-mil evangelical dispys in bold

Prior to the Fall

Adam (Marital)

Adam to Noah

Noah (Family)

Noah to Abraham

Abraham (Tribe)

Abraham to Moses

Moses (Nation)

Moses to Christ

David (Kingdom)

Jesus (Worldwide Kingdom)

the current church age

Consummation (Coming home to Heaven)

Millennial Kingdom

The dispensationalists start one step earlier (pre-fall); Hahn adds in a Davidic covenant. Otherwise, the lists are the same, if the vocabulary a bit different.

You then drop the post fall Adamic covenant to squeeze in Issac.

Of course, neither your formulation nor Hahn's quite matches up with the teaching of Rome.

See, generally, "The Stages of Salvation" here:
