‘What does it mean to be made in God’s image?’
A fresh and unified approach to biblical typology and imagery that aims to be immediately understandable, compelling, and then subsequently helpful as a reference text.
The Bible’s own teaching about typology is analysed in order to derive practical definitions of type and image. These definitions are then used to apply biblical typology to daily life. The wisdom of other writers including Pink, Fairbairn, and others is sampled and compared.
Readers will be able to identify biblical types for themselves, understand their significance, and put typology into practice in their own lives, those of their families and churches, at work, in the home, in relationships, in such a way as to honour and bring glory to God through the Lord Jesus Christ.
A biblical type is a visible person, object, act, relationship, rôle or office, place, ceremony or event, used by God to represent, and thereby teach us about, a greater, invisible, reality, often in Christ, that is of a kind either sanctioned or forbidden by Scripture directly or implicitly.
‘This is a very helpful work on typology: It is easy reading; gives many examples; provides a good (not too narrow) definition of a type; and doesn’t restrict types to just those explicitly identified as such in the Bible (so being parallel with the Bible’s practice of not labelling all parables with the word “parable”). I recommend it for those who enjoy types, those who have never heard of the word, and those who are suspicious of types.’ - Dr Robert C. Newman
