40 Questions About Typology and AllegoryA biblical type is a person, place, or thing in salvation history that corresponds to a later person, place, or thing in the scriptural text. An allegory is a passage that says one thing in order to say something else. Both are common literary devices in the Bible that are vital for understanding truths about Jesus Christ found nowhere else.

A biblical type is a person, place, or thing in salvation history that corresponds to a later person, place, or thing in the scriptural text. An allegory is a passage that says one thing in order to say something else. Both are common literary devices in the Bible that are vital for understanding truths about Jesus Christ found nowhere else. In 40 Questions About Typology and Allegory, Mitchell Chase provides a thorough introduction to both devices, showing where they appear throughout Scripture and the historical roles they have played in biblical interpretation. In a convenient question-and-answer format, Chase answers key questions such as:
Why should interpreters care about typology and allegory?
How do we identify types?
What are the theological assumptions of typology?
Do all types lead to Christ?
What is allegorical interpretation?
How was allegory practiced in the early church?
How should we practice allegorical interpretation?

Situating typology and allegory within salvation history, Chase shows how these devices reveal the interconnectedness of Scripture and commonly overlooked aspects of Christ's person and work. Scholars, Bible teachers, and preachers will find this an essential resource for interpreting Scripture more comprehensively.

“Mitchell Chase has written a book that will profit God’s people―church members, theological students, pastors, and teachers. Of the many qualities of this book, the first is that it is well-written. Chase discusses issues that are often fuzzy in the minds of God’s people―typology and allegory―in a very accessible manner. A second quality of this book is that it is scripturally-based. This is the case not simply because Chase quotes Scripture but because he bases his arguments on the entailments of Scripture. He is not afraid to think contemplatively about what Scripture means by what it says and how its meaning ought to affect interpretation. A third quality of this book is that its argument is canonical. Chase argues his case based on the Old and New Testaments, and on how Scripture interprets Scripture. A fourth quality of the book is that it is historically-rooted. Chase’s book displays a wholesome and necessary respect for the thoughts of great minds who have gone before us. Since presuppositions are both inevitable and determinative, why not come to Scripture with time-proven assumptions? Chase’s book helps us at this very point. A fifth quality of this book is that it is practically relevant. It will help God’s people understand the written Word of God in order to love, worship, and serve God better. I thank Mitchell Chase for writing this book. It will, with careful study, provide great help to the church of God. It will inform all, challenge many to re-think issues related to typology and allegory, and confirm the hunches of others.” Richard C. Barcellos, pastor of Grace Reformed Baptist Church, Palmdale, CA

This was another quick and entertaining read. This instalment wasn't as enjoyable as some of the other books but it was still good. I'm glad to have it in my collection.

All around helpful---worth the money!
Format: Paperback
This guide has been most helpful for all the folks I help prepare for the iTEP test! It gives insight into what each section of the test is looking for along with examples and great tips about actually TAKING the test. In the Writing and Speaking sections, it also gives sample scores and comments from the Master Grader which is very helpful too.

Comprehensive, clear and coherent!
Format: Paperback
The iTEP Practice Guide combines a no-nonsense approach to the specific iTEP tests and at the same time offers exercises that task the student with what they need to know. Exercises not only serve the purpose of scoring well, but the overall approach is communicative competence. We use the text in our group and one-to-one classes with very positive--and lasting--results.

No recomiendo
Format: Paperback
Muy malo, no vine completo, además se demoró mucho más de lo que decía al momento de comprarlo. Solo aplazaban la fecha de entrega sin consultar cómo afectaba al cliente. Yo tuve que presentar el examen sin el libro, porque no llegó en la fecha que decía al comprarlo y después se cambió 3 veces la fecha, casi cumpliendo el mes.
