The Typology Of Scripture Or The Doctrine Of Types

Excerpt from The Typology of Scripture, or the Doctrine of Types Investigated in Its Principles, and Applied to the Explanation of the Earlier Revelations of God, Considered as Preparatory Exhibitions of the Leading Truths of the Gospel: Two Volumes in One IN now presenting the following pages to the Public, the Author has nothing to add to what is stated in the Introduction, regarding their leading object, or the Opening which at present exists for a work of this nature. It is intended to supply, what all, who have turned their attention seriously to the subject, must have felt to be a desideratum - to rescue the typology of Scripture, if possible, from the arbitrariness and uncertainty which have hitherto enveloped it, and to derive from it somewhat of real and substantial service toward the interpretation of the mind and pur poses of God. How far he has succeeded in accomplishing this end, it is of course for others, not for himself, to decide.
