Lesson 10 | Quotations & Allusions
Practice
Let’s rewind a little to a passage we have already studied. Except this time, we will do a deep dive into the allusion we find there.
Note that the genre of each is historical narrative. Note also the dynamics of redemptive history that come into play here. Christ is the fulfillment of all the Old Testament—including being the perfect version of the godly prophets we find there, like Elijah. With those things in mind, watch me think through the connection Jesus is drawing.
