1The Greek is very elegant and expressive of this sense. For a type is such a form or representation of a thing, as is made by hard pressing or striking of it, such as we see in stamps and seals. It is the leaving of a mark with a blow; implying, that the Lord by those strokes upon his ancient people, left marks upon their bodies or printed letters there (the Greek word for a Printer is a Typewriter) which were legible to their posterity, and are to this day. Hence the scar which the nails made in the hands of our blessed Saviour upon the cross, is called, The print of the nails; or, The type of the nails, Joh. 20.25. Such a type or print sufferings leave behind them. How many such types have we this day. Where can we go, but we may see the print of the Sword, and thrust our hands into wounded sides, Let us not be faithless, but believing? The Apostle Peter, (2 Epist. 2.6.) brings the apostate Angels, the old world, filthy Sodom, as admonitory examples unto those that should live ungodly. They made themselves evil examples by committing sin, and God made them good ensamples by punishing them for their sin.
