Author(s):

William McEwen is one of the forgotten writers of the Scottish church of the eighteenth century and one of the great popular exponents of a sound biblical typology. In this book, McEwen investigates numerous people, places, and things in the Old Testament and shows how they prefigure the Lord Jesus Christ. Each chapter exhibits a lively meditation, providing concise, conversational, and user-friendly explanations of each subject under review. If you wish to better understand how the Hebrew Scriptures point to Jesus, read McEwen on the types and prepare to delight in the glory and fullness of Christ.
