Chapter 45 - Types

There are no non-essentials in God’s Word. The Word is full of types, symbols, Pictures; all have deep, peculiar, spiritual meaning.

The Tabernacle in the wilderness is a revelation of Truth—an object lesson of spiritual Truth. It is the revelation of Christ and His redemptive work; the story of the gospel. It teaches how God can meet His People, and how His people can come into the Presence of their God.

The first five books of the Bible are mostly types. Jesus is pictured as Lamb, Altar, Priest; varied glories of His Person, and varied aspects of His work. Jesus taught in types. The believer who has most acquaintance with Jesus, who loves Him best, will see the most beauties in the types.
