Can anyone disannul or add to God's covenant with Abraham or the patriarchs?
No. When God made covenants with Abraham, David, Isaac, or the other patriarchs, no one could remove a single word or add to it. Though thousands of years passed, those covenants remain absolute, settled forever, and cannot be annulled or abridged.
Paul writes that even a man's covenant, once confirmed, no man disannulleth or addeth to it. Les explains this applies to God's covenants with Abraham, David, Isaac, and the other patriarchs: none of those great men could take away a single word or add to it. It stood settled in concrete because God was the one who made it. Even though thousands of years may have elapsed, these covenants are still absolute. No one can annul them or abridge them, for they are settled forever. The passage then moves to Abraham and his seed, emphasizing the promises made to Abraham and the line leading to the Messiah.
Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
