The study of how Old Testament persons, events, and institutions foreshadow their New Testament fulfillment. Adam is a 'type' of Christ (Romans 5:14). The Passover lamb prefigures Christ's sacrifice (1 Corinthians 5:7). The tabernacle foreshadows Christ's body (John 2:19-21, Hebrews 9). Moses' bronze serpent points to the cross (John 3:14-15). Jonah's three days in the fish anticipate Christ's burial (Matthew 12:40). Melchizedek prefigures Christ's priesthood (Hebrews 7). The flood parallels baptism (1 Peter 3:20-21). Typology reveals the Bible's unified design — God weaving patterns across centuries that find their fulfillment in Christ.
