Protestant divines had tended to restrict typology to figures, actions, and objects in the Old Testament which in their view shadowed forth Christ as their antitype. |
The first is an antitype of the Resurrection and, unlike the more formal Old Testament antitypes, offers direct evidence of Christ's ability to save those close to him. |
Finally, we see him holy in his death, as the antitype of the sin offerings of old. |
A type is a symbol appointed by God to adumbrate something higher in the future, which is called the antitype. |
In the ordinance of the Lord's Supper, a beautiful antitype of the table of shewbread is seen. |
She is praised by contrast with the antitype, Thryth, just as Beowulf was praised by contrast with Heremod. |
