It may also surprise some that I don't believe this part of the covenant has been fulfilled yet

Interesting. Can you explain why?

Well, for one, Messiah Yahoshua drank 3 cups of wine at the Passover Seder, the third being the Cup of Redemption, yet the fourth cup, the fourth "I will", He said He would not drink until He shared it in His Father's kingdom. This will fulfill the terms of New Heart Covenant.

This covenant also says that all shall know YHWH and all shall walk in His statutes and judgments.

Until then, there are also terms of this Covenant that have yet to take place. Namely, the reuniting of the whole House of Israel.

Jeremiah 31
33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith YHWH, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

The Covenant is made with the Houses of Israel and Judah. Others will join in, but these are the key covenant parties.

Jeremiah 32
37 Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:
39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
41 Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
42 For thus saith YHWH; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.

Ezekiel 36
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do [them].
28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

There are other verses, but wherever Scripture speaks of this eternal New Heart Covenant, it focuses on the joining together the two sticks, the two witnesses, Israel and Judah again and them possessing all the land of promise.

It also speaks of another exodus, a great exodus, one that will make the exodus from Egypt a forgotten thing.
