The Doctrine of Types, and Its Influence On the Interpretation of the New Testament, an Essay, Which Obtained the Norrisian Medal for 1829

By William Selwyn Jr.

"The Doctrine of Types, and Its Influence On the Interpretation of the New Testament" by William Selwyn is a scholarly exploration of typology as a method of biblical interpretation, particularly within the New Testament. Originally awarded the Norrisian Medal in 1829, this essay delves into the historical and theological significance of understanding the Old Testament as prefiguring events and figures in the New Testament. Selwyn meticulously examines how the doctrine of types shapes the understanding of Christian scripture and theology. This work offers valuable insights for students and scholars interested in biblical hermeneutics, the history of theological thought, and the enduring influence of typological interpretation.
