Biblical Theology and Marian Studies: Catholic for a Reason II

In a beautiful and more extended look at typology in Scripture, Scott Hahn shows us the necessity of theology that is based on Scripture—biblical theology—and how Mariology gives us this biblical theology by unifying exegesis, dogma, and the liturgy. Hahn systematically examines three specific types from the Old Testament, explains how they are fulfilled in the New Testament, and relates them to dogmas that are taught by the Church. He concludes that understanding the Church’s teachings on Mary requires us to embrace the typological reading of Scripture used by the Apostles, which is so evident in the liturgy today.
