Small Group Discussion Questions:
- Why do you think God chose to teach us through picture?
- What are some examples of people or events that teach us the opposite of the gospel and create a longing for someone better to come and rescue us?
- How does the flood event teach us the gospel?
- Read Genesis 22 and discuss what we can learn about Jesus from this passage?
- How does the New Testament use typology of people and events?
- Do you think we can carry typology too far? For example, Noah’s ark was made of wood and the cross was made of wood.
- Is this just really exciting information or does it help us in our everyday life? If so, how?
