The Nature And Use Of A Type, The Substance Of Two Sermons by George Lavington presents a theological meditation on biblical typology. The work defines what a Type is, the relationship between Type and Antitype, and argues that the Old Testament repeatedly prefigures the gospel realities of Christ and the Christian faith. It centers on the Passover lamb as a principal example, showing how its regulation and sequence—selection and sacrifice of a spotless lamb, the feast of unleavened bread, the offerings of first-fruits, and the later Feast of Weeks—foreshadow Christ’s Passion, death, resurrection, and the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. The author contends that prophecies and miracles substantiate Christian revelation, while warning against superficial or purely allegorical readings that distort the literal intent of Scripture. He insists that a proper typological reading reveals a harmony between the Old and New Testaments, strengthening the case for Christian truth and the authority of revealed religion. The Preface also addresses critics of typology and offers guidance on discerning legitimate typological application.
