Interpreting the Bible the Orthodox Way is unavailable, but you can change that!

Orthodox Christian priest John A. Peck draws from his 20 years of experience teaching, preaching, and studying Scripture to provide a concise overview of interpreting the Bible according to the time-tested traditions of the Orthodox Church. Peck teaches a simple method for making sense of difficult passages of Scripture, and putting this important discipline to use for maximum spiritual benefit.

The Typological sense is the sense that refers to Christ in types, or prefigurements. We see these everywhere in the Old Testament. St. Paul even uses the word ‘type,’ in two of his letters. • Romans 5:11 “Adam was a type of Christ …” • 1 Corinthians 10:6 “Things that happened in the desert to Israel during the Exodus are types for Christians.” Memorize these two now. The word type means a mark, or imprint, as one would leave from a blow, like a handprint.
