The Types of Genesis Briefly Considered: As Revealing the Development of Human Nature (1885)

Andrew Jukes (1815 â€“1901) was an English theologian educated at Harrow & Trinity College, Cambridge. He was a curate in the Church of England at St. John's Church, Hull, but became convinced of Baptist teaching and underwent adult baptism, joining the Plymouth Brethren. Jukes left the Plymouth Brethren and founded an independent chapel in Hull. Among those influenced by Jukes was Hudson Taylor.

One cannot but hail the labours of a man who sees in the Divine word far more than the mere letter. When the temple of truth is beset by a crowd of busy men who spend their strength in discussing the details of its architecture, its dates, and its builders, it is pleasant to find one whose ambition it is to penetrate to its shrines and listen to its holy oracles. No devout reader of this book can fail to have his estimate of the hidden beauty of the Scriptures quickened by its pages.

This volume aims to shew that the lives of Adam and his sons are the figure of the moral and spiritual development of human nature, and divinely-appointed types of every form of life which can grow out of man or human nature.

The introduction is on the work and rest of God. Then follows seven types in human nature. First, is of Adam, or Human Nature. From this is begotten Cain and Abel, or the carnal and the spiritual mind. Next is the Regeneration of the human, as in Noah, passing through the waters of Baptism. From this new order comes, in due time, Abraham or the spirit of faith. This faith begets then long after, the spirit of sonship, as in Isaac. Sonship again begets obedient service, as Isaac begets Jacob, who lays hold with his hand. From the spirit of service arises another type in Joseph, who finally represents suffering and glory. The whole is beautifully grouped together.
