PRINCIPLES OF BIBLICAL HERMENETICS ; M. M. NINAN<br />
There are various kinds of types presented in the Old Testament. Chief among these are:<br />
Typical Events<br />
Example: I Cor. 10:2; i.e. passing through the cloud and sea-a type of baptisms<br />
Typical People<br />
Example: Heb. 7; i.e. Melchizedek-a type of Christ<br />
Typical Things<br />
Example:Heb. 8:1-5; i.e. the tabernacle; within the tabernacle are several symbols, such as:<br />
the golden altar, candlestick and veil. The tabernacle is a type of atonement, and the symbols<br />
each help to point to that complete fulfillment in Jesus on the cross in the New Testament.<br />
Typical Offices<br />
Example: Heb. 4:14; i.e. Jesus as the High Priest)<br />
Hebrews 10:1-2 “The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming-not the<br />
realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly<br />
year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship. If it could, would they not<br />
have stopped being offered?”<br />
