You can read my longer review at SpoiledMilks (04/10/25).
James M. Hamilton Jr.â��s Typology offers a compelling and structured defense of typological interpretation in Scripture, rooted in canonical and covenantal continuity. Rather than reading Jesus into the Old Testament, Hamilton demonstrates how Godâ��s promises shaped the biblical authorsâ�� worldview, influencing how they structured and connected key persons, events, and institutions across redemptive history. His method emphasizes authorial intent and uses textual cluesâ�"like repetition, quotation, and thematic sequenceâ�"to highlight genuine typological patterns.
The book unfolds in three parts: persons (e.g., Adam, Isaac, David), events (e.g., creation, exodus), and institutions (e.g., Levitical cult, marriage), and culminates in ââ?¬Å"macrolevelââ?¬Â? patterns like chiasms in Genesis. Hamilton also offers thoughtful critiques of prosopological exegesis and helps us move away from committing eisegesis. Not all will agree with each connection, but the overall effect is compelling and deeply rooted in biblical theology.
This book will richly benefit pastors, teachers, and scholars alike. It models careful exegesis while remaining accessible and spiritually edifying. Hamilton delivers on his aim: showing how the Bibleââ?¬â?¢s ââ?¬Å"promise-shaped patternsââ?¬Â? point faithfully and clearly to Christ.
