I fail to see how this theological compromise fits in with Hebrews 8, which discusses doing away with the Old Covenant in favor of the New, and Galatians 3, which states that the Seed of Abraham referred specifically to Christ.
This almost seems like the eschatological equivalent of theistic evolution--trying to balance scripture with commonly held misconceptions.

Seeing how the author addresses both these matters and affirms them as being true, I don't see the problem.
