Seeing Christ: Christ-centered Typology

"Typology" - a term given to a method of interpreting the Old Testament scriptures in light of the New Covenant, was used by the apostolic writers of the New Testament. This approach to understanding the Old Testament is based on the principle Paul the apostle gives in 1 Corinthians 15:46, "The spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual.". There are many symbols - "types", "copies", "figures", or "patterns" - in the Old Testament which are completed, or fulfilled in the New Testament. A Christocentric hermeneutic focuses on Old Testament types which are fulfilled in Christ - as Paul wrote in Colossians 2:17 - "things which are only a shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ".

In this book which includes many illustrations, the writer gives a very in-depth study of those Old Testament types of Christ found in the Tabernacle of Moses. The purpose and goal of the book is to both lay a spiritual foundation established on "the beginning teaching about the Christ" (Hebrews 6:1) found in these Old Testament types, and to bring increase to our Revelation of Christ, Relationship with Christ, and ultimately, our individual and collective Reflection of Christ.
