And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. - Matthew 18:3
The discussions about the Atonement have compelled me to appeal to the types and shadows in the OT to clarify the prosaic and poetic didactics of the apostles and prophets, especially when they touch upon the Person and work of Christ.
Though the pictures begin in Genesis 1 with Creation week as a picture of the stages of Redemption from the advent of light to the entrance into Rest, I'm going to begin with the question of whether or not Christ was touched with the wrath of God 'instead of us.'

It begins in Genesis 3:21, where God made coats of skins for Adam and his wife. The judgment was that in the day that they eat of the fruit, they shall surely die. And they did die, in the substitutes that were killed to make their coverings.
