Except God himself says he broke it. We have two choices. Accept what God says in scripture, or reject that for our own personal beliefs.

Zechariah 11:10 And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.
Zechariah 11:11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

Again, the word that is translated break in the passages you shared means annul or annulled. It's a poor translation to say God broke any covenant. He has never transgressed the terms of any covenant. But I appreciate the discussion. Grace and peace.

NO, it's correctly translated. "break" has different meanings not the one single meaning you are thinking of.

Breaking the rules of a cov IS NOT THE SAME as breaking a cov itself. Israel broke the rules of the cov, and God broke the entire cov in response.
