Summary
Core Theme
The central theme is that the Old Testament, particularly Hebrews 11, is replete with types and foreshadowings of Jesus Christ, revealing Him as the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises and the central figure of all Scripture, rather than a means to earthly prosperity.

I think that the thing that makes this
series finding Jesus in the Old
Testament so exciting is that it's like
rediscovering the greatness and wonder
of the Bible and it's not a new theology
no no it's what's always been there
always been available to us but it's not
like some some teachers let's be honest
they dig it they dip into the Scriptures
and then they have to figure out a way
to make this Bible passage about your
wealth right your physical health your
material wealth your job your family
your marriage your kids it has to fit in
all the spheres of your life
and I can't tell you how many teachers
I've heard where no matter what verse
they go to you know it's gonna be
applied in those like five sectors like
health wealth family job marriage you
know it's gonna be you know God's gonna
use this to bless your health
bless your well you're gonna have
prosperity and I'm so tired of this the
Bible is about Jesus like if there's
anything that we can we can every at
least every major section of Scripture
we can bring some application to is
Jesus this is what revelation 19 says it
says that the testimony of Jesus is the
spirit of prophecy so that it excites me
to go through Hebrews 11 now continuing
through Hebrews 11 because it's an
amazing inspiring Christ glorifying Hall
of types or Hall of foreshadowings of
Jesus I really think in all honesty
every single thing that's mentioned
relates in somehow to Jesus Christ in
Hebrews 11 and a building the case for
that last week we talked about the first
20 verses or 19 verses and I'll put a
link in the video description for that
and this week we're picking up in verse
20 so we've already talked about how
creation is a type of Christ how Abel
was a type of Christ how Enoch was a
type of Christ Noah's Ark Abraham
Sarah's pregnancy Isaac we've already
dealt with all that now are in verse 20
and it says by faith Isaac invoked
future blessings on Jacob and Esau how
is this a type of Christ well if you
look at Isaac's blessing on Jacob then
first thing you have to recognize right
is Abraham Isaac Jacob these are the patriarchs
patriarchs
these are Abraham the the the
the Jewish nation Isaac the one through
whom his offspring would go and then
then it goes down to Jacob and Jacob
whose name was changed to Israel from
whom the twelve tribes come from whom
all of Israel gets their name the
Israelites and so we're looking at
here's the patriarchs and in this
passage it's about Isaac invoking future
blessings on Jacob and Esau he's
literally before he dies it was a
tradition he would put his hands upon
his sons and he pray for God's blessings
like imparting like a spiritual
inheritance to them as opposed to just a
physical inheritance or some kind of a
spiritual thing going on there so he
blesses them in Galatians 3:16 we
learned that the blessings the promises
that came from Abraham Isaac and Jacob
ultimately they relate to Jesus Christ
so I've already got a case for typology
here in Galatians 3:16 it says now the
promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring
offspring
it does not say into offsprings plural
referring to many but referring to one
and to your offspring who is Christ
so already Paul is giving us the
inspiration of the Holy Spirit is giving
us the fact that this promise in Abraham
relates directly to Jesus so here we are
we're at the death of Isaac and as
Isaac's dying he passes on a promise a
blessing that came originally from
Abraham he passes it on to his sons and
it's ultimately about Jesus we already
know that much so I think we can say
already that this verse Isaac invoked
future blessings on Jacob and Esau this
is already Tippa logical based on
Galatians 3:16 but let's look at the
blessing so that's in Genesis chapter 27
in Genesis 27 we'll just look at verses
27 through 29 this is when he actually
places his hands upon them and he
blesses them Genesis 27 27 so he came
near and kissed him and Isaac smelled
the smell of his garments and blessed
him and said now remember this is kind
of a controversial section of the
scripture here because Jacob and Esau
well they played a switcheroo
well Esau didn't do it on purpose Jacob
is imitating Esau but I'm going to put
that to the side
because we're focusing on the promise
not on the whole drama that was going on
there so he smells the smell of his
garments and he smells like the field
and so he says see the smell of my son
is as the smell of a field that the Lord
has blessed how would I relate this to
Jesus Mike you're just you've got to be
making stuff up man you can't connect
this to Jesus actually I think I can and
I think I can do it pretty easily in
Scripture the original cursing upon the
land itself came from God when Adam and
Eve ate of the fruit right Adam because
of what you've done the ground is cursed
the ground is cursed and Isaac looks at
his smells his son and he says the smell
of a field that God has blessed and if
these promises ultimately connect to
Jesus it's almost as though this is a
foreshadowing of the fact that in Adam
the field is cursed but in Christ the
blessing is brought back and so we have
a new heaven and new earth ultimately
made from Christ and that is the
blessing in there now there's
descriptions actually consistent on this
in Romans 8 we read about how it's not
only Adam and Eve that fell but all of
creation was drugged down with them and
how Jesus is not only gonna rescue those
who come to him in faith like we're
gonna be saved but he's gonna fix the
earth as well ultimately recreating it
but Romans 8 verse 19 it says for the
creation waits eagerly longed for the
revealing of the sons of God so creation
itself is waiting for us to be revealed
the sons of God phrases of course guys
and girls it's not just talking about
boys before the creation was subjected
to futility not willingly but because of
him who subjected it in hope that
subjected to futility was when Adam ate
of the fruit and got cursed the ground
on behalf of Adam well the ground will
be blessed on behalf of Christ that the
creation itself will be set free from
its bondage to corruption and obtain the
freedom of the glory of the children of God
God
for we know that the whole creation has
been groaning together in the pains of
childbirth until now and we see the
effects of the fall are not only in us
but there in the world itself with
basically how messed up things are maybe
this is even talking about the weather
cycle and things like this you know
there's these groanings verse 23 and not
only the creation but we ourselves who
have the firstfruits of the Spirit groan
inwardly as we wait eagerly for the for
adoption as sons the redemption of our
bodies so when we are renewed restored
then the earth is gonna be restored
ultimately in Christ so I I see a
connection in Genesis 27 27 where he
says the smell of my son is as the smell
of a field that the Lord has blessed
that ultimately just as though it was
cursed in Adam so will be blessed in Christ
Christ
and then as he goes on Issac speaking he
says in verse 28 may God give you of the
dew of heaven and of the fatness of the
earth and plenty of grain and wine let
peoples serve you and nations bow down
to you be lord over your brothers and
may your mother's sons bow down to you
cursed be everyone who curses you and
blessed be everyone who blesses you now
I think every single phrase in verse 28
and 29 is true of Jesus specifically so
need to kind of unpack how I see that
the dew of heaven and the fatness of the
earth and plenty of grain and wine will
be his and you might be like how is this
Christ well I think this is speaking
about the Messianic Kingdom of Christ
when we read about this in scripture
about how there will be this incredible
plenty when Jesus himself is reigning
upon the earth this is a premillennial
view this is we believe this millennium
is actually coming and so the dew of
heaven the fatness of the earth grain
and wine this is a future thing but
there's more people's will serve you and
nations bow down to you these are these
are his final words ultimately to Jacob
right well when Jacob I'll jump forward
when he gives his final words to his
sons he says this in genesis 49:10
because where the promise is kind of
carrying from father to son father to
son and genesis 49:10 he says the
scepter shall not depart from judah nor
the ruler's staff from between his feet
until tribute comes to him and to him
shall be the obedience of the peoples
now this the ancient rabbis would agree
this was a messianic passage this is
that ultimately not just about judah was
about shiloh or the ultimate Messiah in
the ESV they translate it until tribute
comes to him
but other translations put that as
Shiloh there's a debate about what it
means but they did agree it was about
Messiah so then there's this people's
being obedient past to Jacob and then
passed to Judah and ultimately fulfilled
in the Messiah who is the king from the
tribe of Judah
so the people's will be obedient to him
so Israel it's like they're carrying
this messianic promise throughout time
and Christ comes and fulfills it
ultimately so that's the people serving
the nation's bowing down Christ of
course has we're bowing down now I mean
how many people and how many nations bow
down to the glory of Christ and how much
that will even increase in the future he
goes on to say that Jacob is going to be
lord over your brothers and may your
mothers sons bow down to you now this is
passed on then to Joseph where Joseph
has dreams
remember his two dreams and it's about
his brothers bowing down to him and even
his mom and dad and he has these dreams
and ultimately we see him as a type of
Christ and we see this as a Christ
centered promise so how does this relate
to Jesus well in a couple ways there are
two brothers of Jesus we read about in
the Bible who actually wrote books in
our New Testament did you know that
James and Jude James 1:1 and Jude 1 I I
say Jew ones only one chapter in Jude so
we don't say to one one you can its just
redundant there's only one chapter so
Jude verse 1 and James 1:1 both of them
start their their epistles the same way
they don't go hey it's me I'm the brother
brother
they say I'm the servant of the Lord Jesus
Jesus
his mother's sons bow down to him well
that's interesting isn't it his mother's
sons bow down to him but of course
ultimately we see not only is it
fulfilled just specifically James and
Jude but we see Christ at every knee
will bow at the name of Jesus Christ the
highest possible fulfillment is of
course 10 G's in Jesus to whom everyone
will bow down then it says this curse
Sid I love this curse it'd be everyone
who curses you and blessed to be
everyone who blesses you now many times
we think about this as being the Israel
promise you know to Abraham to his sons
to ultimately the nation of Israel
blessed them and God bless you curse
them God will curse you and I think
all the promises were ultimately in
Christ right and is in Jesus he the
dividing line between whether you will
be blessed by God or cursed by God it's
how you treat Jesus so blessed to be
those who blessed you cursed those who
curse you that's the ultimate like
fulfillment fulfillment of this it's
true that later think about this -
there's a there's a relation to the law
we see the law as being somehow inferior
to Christ as he fulfills the law and
does it so much better but in the law
when Moses gives the law he has this
moment where he tells the people to
separate into two groups and sit on
either side of a mountain and then he
has the rest of the people go through
the pathway between the two the valley
between the two mountains and on one
side of the mountain they call out the
blessings of obeying the law and on the
other side of the mountain they call it
the curses if they disobey the law so
blessed Kerr said blessed if you do this
cursed if you do that and of course they
all failed so they're all all are under
the curse of the lies many as sin or
under the curse of the law collations
tells us so we have this this later
thing where the blessing and cursing
seems to come through the law ah but
there was a previous promise that
supersedes it right blessed be him who
blesses you
cursed be him who curses you so we
focusing on Jesus if I'm gonna do it
performance wise I'm under a curse but
if I'm if my life is so ultimately about
blessing Christ about knowing Christ
then I get to receive that blessing so
that's kind of interesting it's it's in
the same sense that Abraham before the
law of works was given Abraham was
justified by faith he just believed and
was accounted to him as righteousness
and four hundred plus years later the
law shows up well they can't undo that
whole faith get get righteous by faith
thing so the law comes later and it says
cursed if you disobey blessed if you
obey well that can't undo this whole
cursed and blessed based upon how you
treat him and who's the ultimate hem of
the promised Jesus so I'm just like yeah
that's cool you know it's just the the
marrying of Scripture together if he's
in 624 says this grace be with all who
love our Lord Jesus within with love
incorruptible and reckless I'm just
kidding it doesn't it didn't say that
that's the pastor translation in first
Corinthians 16:22 it says if anyone has
no love for the Lord let him be accursed
so it's how you treat Jesus you're
blessed or cursed depend on how you
treat Jesus in John 3:18 it says whoever
believes in Him is not condemned but
whoever does not believe is condemned
already because he's not believed in the
name of the only Son of God so the
blessing and curses fall down depending
on how I treat Jesus and now that may be
a new way of understanding when God says
to Abraham blessed are those who bless
you curse those who curse you it's true
of Abraham is true the people of Israel
and it's most true in the most fullest
sense of Jesus who is the ultimate
object of the promise of all those promises
promises
verse 21 just one verse so let's keep going
going
by faith Jacob when dying blessed each
of the sons of Joseph bowing in worship
over the head of his staff so we talked
about Isaac and we read about how he
blessed Jacob now we're gonna read about
how Jacob blesses his sons um now that's
this happens in Genesis 48 Genesis
chapter 48 and in Genesis 48 he starts
before blessing them by recounting some
of his life story and I think it's
interesting because Hebrews has brought
this issue up so let's look at it
Genesis 48 3 it says and Jacob said to
Joseph god almighty appeared to me atlas
in the land of Canaan and blessed me and
he before bringing a blessing to his
sons he reminds them of the blessing God
gave him so he's kind of passing it
forward right but this is the Jacob's
Ladder event that he's referring to so
in blessing his sons the first thing he
does is he brings up a type of Christ
where he sees the ladder and the angels
of God going it up and down - sinning
upon the ladder and Jesus in the Gospels
he relates the ladder to himself he says
you will see them descending upon me
that I am the access point between
heaven and earth so already we have a
type in that but in Genesis 48 verse 15
and 16 we read about the actual blessing
that he gives is as any blessed Joseph
and said God before whom my father's my
father's Abraham and Isaac walked the
God who has been my Shepherd all my life
long to this day
the angel
who has redeemed me from all evil bless
the boys now this he has a passage we
went over several weeks ago
I don't know was like a year ago
something like that it feels like it was
several weeks ago and this is one of
those sort of like deity of Christ
passages because it's the angel of the
Lord who he talks about but look at the
terminology he goes the god before who
my father's Abraham and Isaac walked the
God who has been my Shepherd all my life
long to this day that's the same being
right they says the angel who is redeem
me from all evil well grammatically
that's the same being the angel is this
is the God well it was the angel of the
Lord who he met and so the angel of the
Lord is of course God and Jesus yeah
so that's verse 21 let's look at verse
22 as we can continue our typological
examination Hebrews 11 this is by faith
Joseph at the end of his life now we're
just talking about people dying mostly
in Hebrews 11 at this point right so now
at the end of his life made mention of
the Exodus and of the Israelites and
gave directions concerning his bones
concerning his bones this we read about
in Genesis chapter 50 at the end of the
book unless you have the Joseph Smith
version where he added several verses at
the end of Genesis so he could have
prophecy about himself
but in Genesis 50 verse 24 it says and
Joseph said to his brothers I'm about to
die but God will visit you and bring you
up out of this land to the land that he
swore to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob
then Joseph made the sons of Israel
swear or promised saying God will surely
visit you and you shall carry up my
bones from here so Joseph died being 110
years old they embalmed him typical
Egyptian custom and he was put in a
coffin in Egypt so he dies in hope the
idea here is that he died in hope that
God would fulfill his promise and that
his his bones were to be carried into
the Promised Land now later in Judaism
the treatment of the bones was all about
the resurrection like the direction in
which they were buried where the
location this is why the the prime
burial ground would be right there in
front of the east gate of Jerusalem in
that Cemetery that's right there you can
google images of it because it's like
hey at the resurrection boom we're gonna
come alive right there
we'll be right there and so um so he
dies in Hope and Joseph's case though
interestingly we already talked about
how he's a type of Christ in so many
ways we did a whole thing on that he
dies outside the promised land in Egypt
but he's looking forward to the promise
and he too is literally gonna be raised
in that new life in that new promise and
he in a sense dies outside of the
promise for the sake of those who will
one day go in because that was why he
got carried away from his brothers why
he got delivered into Egypt that he
might deliver them so I see that as a
very simple type or foreshadowing of
Jesus Christ verse 23 by faith Moses now
we we dug way deep into Moses already so
I'm gonna do this a little less detail
because we've already covered a lot of
this material but it says by faith Moses
when he was born was hidden for three
months by his parents because they saw
that the child was beautiful and they
were not afraid of the king's edict by
faith Moses when he was grown up refused
to be called the son of Pharaoh's
daughter choosing rather to be
mistreated with the people of God than
to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin
so there's tons of stuff about Moses but
the the couple things that are mentioned
in Hebrews that relate to him is first
off he was hidden and you know being
attacked by the king the edict to kill
these Jewish babies and he was hidden
and saved from that and Jesus same
scenario right except now it's King
Herod and he's killing the the the
Bethlehem II and children if that's the
right term you know the ones that are in
the area of Bethlehem and we read about
that Matthew 2 verse 16 also the second
thing then is that he refused to be
called a son of Pharaoh he left his
place in Pharaoh's household being in
Pharaoh's household even being an
adopted kid was kind of a big deal you
know he was kind of a big deal and he he
was getting the royal treatment and so
he decides to leave that he abandons any
authority he has any rank he has and any
identification he has with the royal
house Moses abandons this when he
decides to identify with the Jewish
people and then ends up being kicked out
a gypped basic
exiled Jesus did something very similar
and just like Moses you know he didn't
have to Moses could it has been like you
guys are on your own like I'm sitting
pretty I'm in the royal house like God
must like me it doesn't like you but
just like that Jesus didn't have to come
and save us
but he condescended or brought himself
down low
Philippians to that passage we keep
bringing up where he brings it makes
himself a servant he gives up heaven to
come and be with us
hebrews chapter 1 verses 2 & 3 it says
I'm in the last days that God has spoken
to us by his son whom he appointed the
heir of all things through whom also he
created the world so we talk about his
glory Jesus already had the glory before
he ever came down unlike in say LDS
teaching Mormon theology Christ he
didn't have all that glory before he
came down he literally came down lived a
perfect life and then died and then got
glorified and was better off afterwards
than he was at first Christ no no he
just he just gave up so that he could
gain us so he's the radiance of the
glory of God and the exact imprint of
his nature and he upholds the universe
by the word of his power I mean you
can't get much more glory than that but
then in Hebrews 2:9 we read this but we
see him who for a little while was made
lower than the Angels namely Jesus
crowned with glory and honor because of
the suffering of death so that by the
grace of God he might taste death for
everyone the phrasing is really
interesting there right Jesus tastes
death the day you eat of it you shall
die the day they tasted of the fruit and
Jesus he tasted of the death for us so
that Adam Jesus thing which is not what
I'm talking about it sidetrack sorry
anyhow just as Moses left Pharaohs
household voluntarily being identified
with with slaves and being identified
with with the the chattel right so
Christ comes in is identified with us
the lowly the lowly verse 26 he
considered the reproach of Christ
greater wealth than the treasures of
Egypt for he was looking to the reward
and this is where as I mentioned before
I think this is where Hebrews
specifically call
it out like this is obviously a type of
Christ because it calls what Moses did
the reproach of Christ by identifying
with the Jewish people and leaving
Pharaoh's household now he's got the
reproach of Christ and has since the
Jewish people are the ones who got his
bringing Messiah through it really is
the reproach of Christ so he considers
the reproach of Christ greater wealth
and the treasures of Egypt
so Moses knew about God's future plans
for Israel and God's promises for them
which are ultimately about Messiah and
he considered that was better than
whatever wealth he had on Egypt so he
leaves it Hebrews 12:2 it tells us that
it was for the joy that was set before
him that Jesus endured the cross there
was something greater coming in the
future that that was what he was looking
forward to and that's consistent in
Hebrews 11 all these people are keeping
look they keep anticipating something
better they're giving up something on
this earth for something eternal
and so Jesus of course he came down to
rescue us you can listen to Jesus's
parables in Luke 15 where he talks about
the lost coin woman who lost a coin
searched everywhere to find it again the
the lost sheep the mayor he leaves the
99 to go find the one right or then
finally the lost son the parable of the
prodigal son who left his father and
when he came home there was this great
rejoicing and I think that the parallel
people like what is it this loss that's
being found well it's those who are lost
I came to seek and save the Lost
and so God's rejoicing and coming to
save us we're in a sense we are the joy
isaiah 53:11 it says about jesus
relating to looking to the reward this
is out of the anguish of his soul he
shall see and be satisfied by his
knowledge shall the righteous one my
servant make many to be accounted
righteous and he shall bear their
iniquities and so there's this he came
to save Casey didn't know that Jesus
came to save verse 27 by faith again
Moses he left Egypt not being afraid of
the anger of the King for he endured as
seeing him who is invisible there's two
elements here one he's not afraid of the
anger of the king and two he's like he's
it's as though he is seeing God as
seeing him who is invisible so let's
talk about those first the anger of the
King um in my mind this may relate to
literally the anger of the king like
God's wrath Jesus took upon himself our
sin and we read about Christ in the
Garden of Gethsemane and he's sweating
great drops of blood right now some
people go it was just a miraculous thing
only Jesus could do actually this is
something called himmat atrocious which
I probably pronounced wrong hema Ted
Rose's maybe probably keema something
like that but this is you can actually
you can google it this the idea is that
you you're under such great strain that
literally your blood vessels are
bursting and blood is coming out of your
pores not just sweat so sweating great
drops of blood though some of mocs the
bible like that doesn't happen this is
this is this is proof that they were
just making stuff up to make Jesus look
like more of a martyr and lo and behold
yeah that happens you know it happens
supposedly when people are dealing with
PTSD issues are on their way to face the
death penalty the night before their
struggling and unable to sleep that's
the kind of stuff that happens but do
you really think it was just the pain of
death because I think it had to do with
the shame of sin in fact that's what
Hebrews tells us in Hebrews 12 is that
he despised the shame the shame of it he
put our sins upon himself he who knew no sin
sin
sin and to me that might be related to
this anger of the king thingg very sober
thought to consider not just the
physical side of the cross which is
pretty hardcore when you think about it
but to consider the spiritual side of
the shame and the darkness of sin my sin
the things I've done wrong that have
stained my soul being put upon him I
can't imagine what that's like because
it wasn't just all of my sins it was all
sin it says also that Moses endured as
seeing him who is invisible and I think
he saw God in a limited sense we read
about this in Exodus where God says you
cannot see my face for man shall not see
me and live God let him like a partial
revelation a vision of God but it's
partial it's somehow limited but Christ
we read about the New Testament
how he's truly seen the father in all
ways and so John 1:18 no one has ever
seen God the only God who is at the
father's side he has made him known
another deity of Christ passage but also
just saying Christ
yea the full revelation of who God is is
being revealed to us in Christ no one
knows the father like the son so this is
the escalation side of typology right
Christ is it an escalated not just like
Moses but way beyond way beyond
everything Moses did was lesser Christ's
fulfillment of it is greater verse 28
this is exciting the Passover okay so by
faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled
the blood so that the destroyer of the
firstborn might not touch them and is
the Passover tip illogically about Jesus
yes like there cannot be debate on this
issue if you believe the Bible right so
I'm gonna give you if I counted right 14
points you have 14 points 14 point I
don't have enough fingers to even 14
points where the Passover relates to
Jesus so this is just rapid-fire you can
read about it in Exodus 12 and in other
passages and numbers as well I'm gonna
have to pass over some of the context
but I'll stick to ya then um okay so
number one the Passover was a lamb
right when Christ came he is compared to
the in fact it's the the announcement of
John the Baptist the forerunner for
Christ is behold the Lamb of God that
takes away the sin of the world again
escalation because no Lamb in any Old
Testament sacrifice took away the sin of
the world Christ is the fulfillment of
it all he does it all so he's a lamb
number two it had to be a male lamb it
had to be a male lamb girls this is not
prejudiced against you if you think and
if you think it is you may be slightly
oversensitive but so it's it's a male as
Jesus was now why is this significant
because in the Bible all of humanity's
ultimately represented by who Adam
because Adam was made first Eve was made
from Adam Adam represents both of them
right then all of us come from Adam and
Eve this is it seems more of the onus is
on Adam responsibility for eating of the
tree of the fruit there's debates on
what would it be like if Eve ate and
Adam didn't eat and my answer is I have
no idea
don't look at me like I would know the
answer to that question but go ahead and
debate it but but yeah it's it's
ultimately Adam in Adam all died in
Christ we are made alive so it had to be
a male I think the male is there
intentionally to be tip illogical of how
Christ would represent all of us as Adam
represented all of us number three the
lamb had to be without spot or blemish
without spot or blemish they couldn't
have anything wrong with it if I had
like like some weird mole growing off of
it you know like most of us do you know
like if it had something like that no no
can't it can't be it can't be use I had
a broken leg nope nothing can be wrong
with the lamb it's got to be as perfect
as you can get well you're not gonna get
a morally pure lamb but you can get a
ceremonially pure lamb to represent the
fact that Jesus is sinless so crisis
without spot or blemish number four it
was in substitute of their firstborn
that was the whole idea of the Passover
the angels gonna pass over and if this
lamb has been sacrificed properly then
nothing will happen if not your
firstborn will be struck why the
firstborn well in some sense you could
say oh it's about Pharaoh and it's about
he was he was worshipped his first
Born's worst
there's no this deification of these
characters of these people and God's
judging that he's showing himself true
and real and these other gods false but
ultimately Christ the only begotten of
God and so ultimately relates to him
just like the binding of issac God makes
your only son Isaac calls him his only
son when when when Abraham's got another
son why to draw that how it represents
Jesus Christ just like the Levites were
considered separated unto the Lord and
he calls them like Israel's firstborn
they're the they're in replacement of
the firstborn it's I'll take the Levites
and then the Levites stand there and
they offer on behalf of the people to
God to make intercession and so this
concept of firstborn is actually really
consistent in in the scriptures number
five you had to take this lamb into your
house and keep it with you it's really
interesting because you couldn't just
take the lamb and sacrifice it no you
had to take it to several days ahead of
time and you to receive it and keep it
with you for a few days that was just
part of the thing now some people say
maybe this was so the family would feel
the pain of sacrificing this animal
because the little kids were like oh
it's sweet tooth we found a goat when I
was a kid into sweet tooth and ate it
I'm just kidding we didn't eat it was on
Catalina Island we just said by sweet
tooth and we left so somebody else ate
it probably um side note but the idea of
keeping him in the house there had to be
a reception as this lamb had to be
received by the people you know to
themselves in a very special and
different way and so Christ must be received
received
he must be embraced in number six they
had to clear the leaven out of their
homes and they had to have this whole
meal that they would have when they
killed a lamb and ate it they had to eat
it with no leaven in any of the meal
that was very important leaven
represents pride or sin generally
speaking and so sinless Christ is
sinless number seven you could not break
its bones this lamb
you can't break its bones for any
purpose not because you want to eat the
marrow no this is a symbolic meal it's
very symbolic it's not even a fun meal I
did a Passover service one time with our
youth ministry where we actually ate
what they really ate of the original
Passover bitter herbs and all that not
not like the the new traditional Jewish
Passover where they add 500 extra things
that aren't in the Bible we just did the
biblical one it was like death this is a
growth meal and I was like yeah well
it's symbolic you get to teach a lesson
not be super yummy we'll go to
McDonald's later but one of the things
is you you can't break the bones of the
of the animal and Christ his bones were
unbroken on the cross they went to break
the bones to kill them more quickly and
Jesus was already dead his bones
remained unbroken and the Bible relates
this to that number 8 the animal had to
be slain are you you couldn't just you
couldn't just use a little bit of blood
right oh this that's all I needed now
you're good go ahead go away lamb you're
fine but the animal had to die because
the blood represents it's life that must
be killed and so Christ had to die for
us number 9 the blood of the Lamb was
placed on the door
the blood of the Lamb placed on the door
of the home now some people say that
this is representing the cross and maybe
it is what they would do is they would
take a branch of hyssop this plant and
they would dip it in the blood of the
Lamb then they would go to their door
and they had to put it on the doorpost
and lintel and everyone's like lintel
isn't that a beam no the that's the top
of the door right and then the sides of
the door so then they would go Wack Wack
Wack now they just had to touch it to
them they didn't have to paint the whole
door it just says touch it to them so
they touched it to them and those are
like the three points of the cross where
Christ is bleeding here here and here
and then you're like well his feet were
bleeding - well I guess if it dripped
from the bottom from the top to the
ground then it would actually be in the
shape of a cross and that may well be
the case I'm sure some of the houses
probably did look that way
they had like a blue cross of blood
across their doorway so the bloods
placed on the door and it's placed with
hyssop in particularly hyssop is an
interesting thing it's always used in
the Levitical law for cleansing purposes
and for like ceremonial spiritual
cleansing purposes and so the cleansing
of leprosy or the whole concept of the
red heifer I'm sorry I'm will get into
the whole red heifer thing tonight it's
just too much to talk about but
basically they would make this this
concoction of stuff they would use for
their ceremonial cleansing and they'd
burn his foot in it and then they'd
apply it with hyssop as well so his
stuffs like related to
cleansing which is why in Psalm 51 7 he
says purge me with hyssop and I shall be
clean but then later in Psalm 51 verse
16 he's like I'm not gonna offer you a
sacrifice so he's like God you offer the
sacrifice you purge me with hyssop I
have no sacrifice to give you Christ is
the ultimate sacrifice so there's a
there's another idea there
number 10 oh excuse me let me say this
the blood place on the door so judgment
was coming to the entire house but the
blood of the Passover lamb had to be
applied to the people or they would not
be saved from this judgment same as the
Krait the blood of Christ must be
applied to your life number 10 the the
blood oh that's number 10 actually the
blood applied is what saved them it was
specifically they had to apply the blood
so Exodus 20 or 12 verse 23 for the Lord
will pass through to strike the
Egyptians and when he sees the blood on
the lintel and on the two doorpost the
Lord will pass over the door and will
not allow the destroyer to enter your
houses to strike you so I had to be
applied to them they'd see them he'd see
the blood you're saved and so we have
been washed by the blood of the Lamb so
we're saved from judgment to come in
number 11 I can't I don't have a finger
number 11 the Passover lamb had to be
eaten not only sacrificed but it had to
be consumed and everybody in the home
had to eat it separately not like in
different rooms but each person each
individual had to eat of the lamb this
was very important Exodus 12 for talks
about this in John 6 51 Jesus says this
and remember the Passover they all had
to eat it he says I'm the Living bread
that came down from heaven if anyone
eats of this bread he will live forever
and the bread that I will give for the
life of the world is my flesh at
Passover he says this is my body broken
for you eat it eat it now this is of
course there's a whole debate in
Catholicism about this being the
Eucharist and all that and I have videos
on that look him up this is not the day
for that but but this is obviously
symbolic and representative
representative of us consuming Christ
and his sacrifice so each person has to
do it maybe your family loves the Lord
but have you made a commitment to Christ
have you embraced Jesus Christ have you
repented and believed in him so the
escalation of this is with Jesus the
Passover is just them leaving Egypt and
the destroyer the firstborn right with Jesus
Jesus
it's about entering eternal life and
it's about passing through judgment to
come it's much greater number 12 how the
Passover was cooked this too is symbolic
they were specifically told in Exodus
you cannot boil it and you cannot eat it raw
raw
no Kibby for those who know Lebanese
food so my family yes No Kibby and no
boiling none of that you have to roast
it in fire and you have to roast the
whole lamb you can't cut it up and roast
it in pieces you have to cook the whole
thing in fire all whole head legs and
inner parts all included fire I believe
represents judgment represents God's
judgment or even Korra's and death how interesting
interesting
the whole thing has to be they're
burning like you you know how animals
stop looking like animals once the
butcher chop some up for you and you're
like see it's like I'm not responsible
because it just looks like meat now but
here you had to see it and be like oh it
was really happening you know you had to
in a sense experience the judgment that
was coming upon this thing in your place
is the idea judgment it's experiencing
judgment not just death but judgment
this is um this is important and that
was how it was cooked it also had to be
served with unleavened bread bitter
herbs those two things already talked
about how leaven represents sin so they
ate unleavened bread with it but the
bitter herbs was to represent the
bitterness of their slavery and you had
to eat this thing with the bitterness of
herbs and I think this represents to us
what is the real slavery Christ delivers
us from sin the bitterness of our sin
when you come to repentance you no
longer look at sin like it's that thing
that you pat yourself on the back oh so
in my own you're bitter you're like Lord
I'm repentant that sin was bitter that
was bondage to sin the things I've done
in the past those are things I'm sure
I'm ashamed of in Christ I come to you
Lord and so there's a sense of
bitterness that we go through that's
healthy number thirteen how they ate it
how they ate it that I already talked
about how they served it but how they
ate it was different in Exodus 12 11 in
this manner you shall eat it with your
belt fastened
with your sandals on your feet and your
staff in your hand and you shall eat it
in haste it is the Lord's Passover
because it was like you're gonna eat it
and then boom you're out of here that's
the idea you're eating it and then
you're out of Egypt really quickly in
first Corinthians 11 26 we're told this
about our communion for as often as you
eat this bread and drink the cup you
proclaim the Lord's death until he comes
every communion service should probably
have some mentioning of the fact that
Christ will return and that we are
eating this communion person you know
we're partaking of what Christ has done
for us we're doing this in expectation
of his return I got my belt on I got my
sandals on I got my staff in my hand I'm
ready to go Lord I do this knowing that
this this future kingdom of Christ is on
its way and that's what I'm ultimately
part of so I'm a pilgrim passing through
is the idea so they had to eat it in haste
haste
I'm partaking of this already committed
that this this place I'm living isn't my
real home there's a future one I'm
waiting on and that's how we partake of
our community as well and number 14 the
last one none of this land was allowed
to remain until morning none of it could
remain till morning
just as Jesus would not remain on the
cross you can't save leftovers here you
partake of it and that's it in John
19:31 it says since it was the day of
the preparation after Christ had been
crucified and so that the bodies would
not remain on the cross on the Sabbath
for the Sabbath was a high day the Jews
asked Pilate that their legs might be
broken and that they might be taken away
so we have this request can we can we
hurry this up
we don't want Jesus to remain until
tomorrow that was the actual request and
so he was then buried and and placed
aside all right let's look at Hebrews 11
verse 29 by faith the people crossed the
Red Sea as on dry land but the Egyptians
when they attempted to do the same were
drowned the Reds the Red Sea corresponds
to Jesus in probably several different
ways in fact Gloriana you mentioned
several weeks ago some specific ones so
you can add at the end of this you can
add on if you're something I missed so
1st Corinthians 10 verses 1 & 2 it's
this and it creates a tip illogical
connection between Jesus and the Red Sea
first Corinthians 10 1:4 I do not want
you to be unaware brothers that our
fathers were all under the cloud and all
passed through the sea and all were
baptized into Moses in the cloud and the
sea baptized and it connects baptism to
the Red Sea which baptisms all
symbolically all about Jesus your
relationship with Jesus man I died with
Christ I raised with Christ and so here
they are they go through the Red Sea
it's connected to baptism Romans 6 talks
about this how baptism connects to Jesus
it says do you not know that all of us
who have been baptized into Christ Jesus
were baptized into his death we were
buried therefore with him by baptism
into death in order that just as Christ
was raised from the dead by the glory of
the Father we too might walk in newness
of life and so here they go out of
slavery they passed through the Red Sea
and then they come out into ultimately a
new life that Red Sea closed down around
their enemies and now they're free now
they're free so baptized into Moses
Moses leads them Moses parts the Red Sea
the Red Sea's related to baptism Moses
is related to Jesus the Red Sea is like
weaksauce compared to what Jesus does
for us but again it's escalation it gets
bigger with Jesus that's the idea what
Christ does is better and it
specifically said through through death
we've gone through death into Christ
well Exodus 14 13 and 14 verses 13 to 14
he says this about the experience of the
Red Sea crossing and Moses said to the
people fear not stand firm and see the
salvation of the Lord which he will work
for you today for the Egyptians whom you
see today you shall never see again the
Lord will fight for you and you only
have to be silent you only have to be
silent words I I just I want to get a
shirt that says that four people four
completely carnal reasons I just want to mine
but the idea is like right at the Red
Sea crossing there they are and Moses
tells them like you're not gonna do this
God's gonna work you're gonna stand
still you're gonna see the salvation
that God brings to you how much do these
words take on more meaning when you
realize that this is a picture of Jesus
and us identifying with him oh lord I
need to be saved oh I'm doomed judgments
coming up behind me my sins the burdens
of my guilt I'm gonna stand before you
and he goes I stand still and watch I
will work your salvation for you you
just have to stand still and then he
saves us he delivers us and we go
through into Christ so in Christ we
passed through death unharmed but those
who reject Christ and try to pass
through will be drowned
just like those Egyptians verse 30 by
faith the walls of Jericho fell down
after they'd been encircled for seven
days Jericho I mean this is another
example Jericho ultimately of God
delivering his people without their
abilities being involved yeah you're
gonna walk around the city okay he
knocks the walls down he takes care of
it and if they're at the entrance to the
promised land that they're reminded
again that God is the strength behind
all the things that are happening for us
so Jesus would do the work for us and we
simply believe we trust verse 31 by
faith Rahab the prostitute did not
perish with those who were disobedient
because she'd given a friendly welcome
to the spies and I have to admit when I
got to Rahab I thought how was Rahab a
type of Christ and I don't think she is
actually she's not a type but in her
story there's something there because
here's the Israelites heading into the
Promised Land and before they get to
inherit their promise they rescue a
Gentile and I thought oh that's
interesting because here before the
Israelites the Jewish people receive
that great revival from God yet God is
rescuing the Jewish people I mean the
the Gentiles many of the Gentiles from
the future destruction that is coming
and so it was a rescue mission for a
Gentile that that spy mission was a
rescue mission for a Gentile who later
became in the line of Messiah we read
about the genealogy of Jesus Rahab is
there verse 32 and what more shall I say
for time would
me to tell of gideon barak samson
jephthah and of david and samuel the
prophets and time would also fail me if
i tried to unpack all those right now so
I'm gonna move forward I am considering
in one of these Sunday night services
what we're doing Jesus in the Old
Testament of doing a survey through the
book of Judges the typology of the book
of Judges because I thought that'd be
kind of cool to just do it in like a
one-shot thing that'd be pretty neat so yeah
yeah
probably do that in verse 33 let's keep
going who through faith conquered
kingdoms enforce justice obtained
promises stopped the mouths of lions
quenched the power of fire escaped the
edge of the sword were made strong out
of weakness became mighty and war put
foreign armies to flight I think every
one of those relates to Jesus in the
following ways by faith they conquered
kingdoms Jesus of course conquered a
kingdom in fact he says in Matthew 16:18
I will build my church and the gates of
Hell shall not prevail against it
ultimately he's conquering a kingdom
Jesus's second coming he's gonna be that
rock the in Daniel Dale to the dream
where the rock comes and destroys the
kings of the world and grows and becomes
the Kingdom that fills the earth this is
Christ conquering kingdoms by faith they
enforced justice that's the second one
in verse 33 enforce justice Jesus took
the sentence of justice upon himself and
forced it in a way that saves us
Galatians 3:13 it says Christ redeemed
us from the curse of the law by becoming
a curse for us for it is written cursed
is everyone who's hanging on a tree talk
about justice the curse of the laws upon
you the curse was a death penalty by the
way the curse of the law that was the
curse everyone hangs on a tree is cursed
that's the death penalty you're hanging
because you're cursed because you got
the death penalty was the capital
punishment Christ became that for us all
judgment was committed to the son Jesus
says and he goes and he goes and I'm not
condemning anybody he didn't mean ever
he's as in my first coming all of you
were condemned and I will go to judgment
for you you reject him and you stand up
to stand alone
so we enforce justice he also obtained
promises I mean Jesus not only
accomplished all that was promised the
ultimate promises of God right but he
also obtained them for us like he's like
now because of what I've done you get
all these promises I've obtained them
for you a second Corinthians 1:20 it
says for all the promises of God find
their a yes in him all the promises of
God find their yes in Jesus he brings
them to us stopped the mouths of lions
now you might think oh that's Daniel you
know there may be a couple other
characters as well Samson
you know he fought a lion of course
Daniel probably he stopped the mouths of
lions you know they didn't even eat him
right David oh I said no Daniel okay
David also killed a lion we talked about
with his sling yeah okay I thought I got
do my name I hate when I get names mixed
up because it's always like you in our
later some was like you know you you
kept saying the devil when you met God I
go have nightmares about that but in
first Peter 5:8 we read that the lion is
related to Satan right be sober and
begin be watchful your adversary the
devil prowls around like a roaring lion
seeking someone to devour
did Jesus stop his mouth both in his
ability to destroy us and in his
accusation 'el tongue the accuser of the
Brethren in Christ both those things are
stopped so he stops the mouths of lions
quenched the power of fire do you think
that might relate to Jesus a little bit
quenching the power fire we can see this
in Shadrach Meshach and Abednego when
they're in the fiery furnace and that
fourth man who may well be a Christ
often II but then we see the fulfillment
of this in Jesus who actually rescues us
from the wrath to come
he quenches the power of fire he escapes
the edge of the sword well he escaped it
in in a way Psalm 22 talks about I'll
read verse 22 it says deliver my soul
from the sword Psalm 22 is that
messianic Psalm and in verse 21 he says
saved me from the mouth of the lion and
then says you have rescued me so yeah he
was delivered but it was after being
pierced that he was delivered it wasn't
without it so escape the edge of the
sword was made strong out of weakness
and I think this is interesting because
Christ came down as a weak human being
but was made strong in that right there
was a type of strength he had in
dependency upon the father being an
example for us I'm so made strong out of
weakness became mighty in war well if we
realize we don't wrestle against flesh
and blood then Christ became very mighty
in war in the spiritual battle that he
fought for us and he won for us and of
course in a second coming he'll be
mighty in a different kind of war and
then he put foreign armies to flight and
I can think of course the armies of the
enemy fleeing from Jesus but I can also
specifically think of when Christ cast
the demons out of that demoniac we read
about in the Bible and they said can we
go into those pigs and they just took
off running putting foreign armies to
flight in fact they called themselves
Legion which was a military way of
saying how many there were so foreign
armies to flight kind of interesting
that all that can I think fairly easily
relate to Jesus Christ and then in verse
35 of Hebrews 11 women received back
their dead by resurrection this could be
about Elijah in the widow receiving back
their dead by resurrection but there's
another connection to Jesus which is
that the women were the very first
witnesses of his resurrection wound
receive back their dead by resurrection
it says some were tortured refusing to
accept release so that they might rise
to again to a better life if you can't
see how that's about Jesus or how that I
should say relates to Jesus right was
torture refusing to accept release Jesus
says don't you think I can't appeal to
my father in heaven and call down a
bunch of angels right now he could have
just snapped his fingers and ended the
whole thing refused to accept release
why so he might rise to a better life
the better being we're saved our
salvation being better verse 36 others
suffered mocking and flogging and even
chains and imprisonment
all of which actually Jesus underwent he
was mocked he was flogged he was bound
and he was imprisoned he had that whole
trial overnight and all that all those
experiences connected Jesus as well
verse 37 they were stoned they were sawn
and 2 they were killed with the sword
they went about in skins of sheep and
goats destitute afflicted mistreated the
one common theme here is they were
killed stone sawn and to kill with the
sword those are all ways
dying they were killed but maybe there's
a metaphor here in the fact that they
went around in skins of sheep and goats
Christ came and he's the lamb he is that
sacrificial lamb they went around in
skins he came and he was the sacrificial
lamb for us destitute afflicted
mistreated he became poor for us he was
mistreated rejected by his people of
course that connects verse 38 of whom
the world was not worthy and this has
never been more true of anyone than it
is of Jesus Christ of whom the world was
not worthy
on a sidenote some say on the cross I
see how much I'm worth and that might be
a reckless way of saying things like
I've heard I've heard pastors say this
the cross shows me how much I'm how much
I'm worth but if the world's not worthy
of those prophets and people who were
before how could we be worthy of Jesus
I'm not worthy it doesn't show how much
I'm worth it so it shows how much I cost
that's the difference that's how much
God paid for me but it wasn't my innate
value that sent him to the cross it was
his love and so it shows me his
incredible love he wasn't just making a
wise investment right he was saving
those he loved verse 38 continues is
wandering about in deserts and mountains
and in dens and caves of the earth they
had no homeland in other words jesus
said the Son of man has nowhere to lay
his head verse 39 and all these they'll
commit committed through their faith did
not receive what was promised since God
had provided something better for us
that apart from us they should not be
made perfect and that verse 39 and 40
kind of concludes by saying all of their
lives we're looking forward to something
greater that was fulfilled by Jesus so
this kind of to me it's just I'll be on
it it's a slant way of kind of leaning
towards typology and foreshadowing in
Hebrews 11 it concludes by showing that
they were all just an anticipation of
Christ and that's kind of my point as
well so this has been my analysis of
Hebrews 11 in a typological sense you
are free to agree or just
agree with me on these different points
I think there's too much here to be
ignored and I think the connections
aren't fabricated I think that they're
actually just there in Scripture to be
discovered and I present it to you
hopefully for you to consider and
hopefully be excited about maybe this
puts new meaning into Hebrews 12 when it
declares that Jesus is the author and
finisher of our faith when it gives this
big list of all these examples that not
only we're looking forward to Christ but
were themselves part of the tapestry
that was painting it or I should say
weaving the truth of Jesus Christ
throughout the Old Testament I mean we
write books and use the stories as
metaphors for truths God does this with
lives with humans with their actual
histories you know and then embeds it
throughout the Scriptures so that the
veil can one day come off and we can see
Jesus throughout the Old Testament let's
pray father thank you so much for your
word and for the revelation of Jesus
Christ which is of course the spirit of
prophecy we pray Lord that you just
continue to give us wisdom help us Lord
to not just look into the text of
Scripture for selfish reasons but to
look there for the glory of Jesus Christ
we love you Father we thank you for your goodness
goodness
we're in awe of your sovereignty and
your power your wisdom and when you just
bow our lives to you Lord Jesus we want
our lives to weave some truth of Christ
to this world I pray that you'd use us
that you'd use the things that we're
going through even the hardships we have
and the struggles we face to bring out
the glory of Jesus Christ to our
neighbors and family and friends those
we meet and those who even just hear of
us we just pray for your glory we pray
that we would declare the truth of Jesus
Christ to this world in Jesus name Amen [Music]
