Q

What are the corners of the “Clowney Rectangle”?

A

Clowney Rectangle (1 = top left; 2 = top right; 3 = bottom left; 4 = bottom right; “History of Redemption” spans top line from T1 to Tn)

  1. T1 = some truth (to the first power), that is, some fact(s) regarding a person, event, or institution revealed in its Old Testament setting
  2. Tn = some truth (to the nth power) that is revealed in its fullness in Christ and His Work.
  3. S = the symbolic value (or significant) of T1. In ‘controlled typology” this is established by context and antecedent revelation.
  4. A = a contemporary application

NOTES:

  • Moralism goes from T1 to A
  • Symbolism from S to T1, Allegory from A to S (Jerome)
  • Control typology draws line of symbolism from T1 to S, then draws line of typology from S to Tn, and finally draws line of application from Tn to A.
