PATRICK'S LIST of "25 Examples of the Foreshadowing Christ's Crucifixion in the OT":
-All Scripture points to Christ, so to see all in the OT that pointed to Him, you'd have to read thewhole OT. These are just a few texts that foreshadow specifically the crucifixion. The completepervasiveness of this theme throughout the OT should show us how absolutely central it is. Wedo well to determine with Paul to know nothing but Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. It shouldalso lead us to worship a God who is so wise, a God who we find constantly in His word"declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, 'Mycounsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose."Isaiah 46:10[The format of what follows is basically notes for something I was going to present verbally, so itmay not be entirely coherent]1. "I will put enmity between you [the serpent] and the woman, and between your offspringand her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel." (Spokeninterestingly to Satan- CD Col 2, where Christ triumphs over him)Genesis 3:152. First death in OT. "And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skinsand clothed them." Genesis 3:21(Then a WHOLE lot of death cf Gen 5. "And he died, and he died, and he died. Theproblem from/curse of sin=death. The last enemy 1 Cor 15)3. Make yourself an ark of gopher wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outwith pitch Gen 6:14 ( כפר Co-fair= ATONEMENT/Ransom. Cf Lev 16 Yom kippur(Hebrew word roots based on Vowels. Eg verbal form of atonement used repeatedly lev16.Noah escaped God's judgment by taking refuge in the ark (Christ) covered with ATONEMENT.Also, the ark landed on the mountains of Ararat (curse reversed) 3 days after passover (the dayof the resurrection- Easter) before the calendar was changed."in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on themountains of Ararat" Gen 8:4God changes the Hebrew Calendar in Ex 12(See speaker's commentary)Cf. Moses in the basket covered with כפר4. "Then Noah built an altar to the LORD and took some of every clean animal and some ofevery clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar."Gen 8:205. Gen 15- God makes a covenant with Abraham and passes through animals that havebeen cut in half alone signifying that he alone takes on the responsibility of seeing to theFulfillment of this Covenant and will bear the consequences if it is broken by either party.E.g., He will be killed like these animals6. Gen 22 sacrifice of Isaac. Cf Heb 11.7. Gen 37-45 Joseph betrayed by his brothers."Then they took Joseph’s robe and slaughtered a goat and dipped the robe in the blood."Gen 37:31"Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is calledFaithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes are like aflame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no oneknows but himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which heis called is The Word of God."Revelation 19:11-13His father thinks he is dead- turns out,
