March 22, 2022

Alastair Roberts
James Hamilton is the author of a superb new book on the subject of typology, 'Typology: Understanding the Bible's Promise-Shaped Patterns—How Old Testament Expectations are Fulfilled in Christ': https://amzn.to/3qmFvki. He joins me for a discussion of his book and of the subject of typology more generally.
