First-Born and Second-Born:
A Study Of Types And Antitypes Of The Scriptures
The Bible teaches that the Hebrew custom of inheritance (which evidently came from God's instruction), after the patriarch of the family died, was to be given to the eldest son, the first-born. Ron McRay, in volume fourteen of his series “Things That Your Preacher Forgot To Tell You,” reveals a seeming disparity by showing several instances where the first-born son did not receive the blessing (inheritance) but rather the second-born son did.
Is there any significance to why this happened? Did the Old Covenant patriarchs not understand the correct way of blessing their offspring or did they not agree with the standard God had set? Once again our Creator had an amazing purpose for these families to disregard the traditions of their forefathers. Dr. Ron sheds light, a bright light, on the pictures, types and shadows God uses to reveal his plan which would be realized by the first century believers.
Nothing is done by accident in the Bible. There is always a purpose for the way things happen. The primary purpose of the book is to show that God has not given His inheritance to the first-born. Contrary to the popular belief that the first-born always occupies first place is not so with God.
Simply put, if the antitypes of scripture are not understood then the types are nothing more than interesting historical stories. Don’t be misled by most teaching and preaching today. Grasp the understanding of what God was really portraying.
Allow this book to open your eyes. God’s ways are not man’s ways and Ron McRay expertly shows the distinctions and fulfillments of these examples that have been hiding in plain sight for many generations.
