Help me on my Abstract of the TCC
This essay aimed to analyze the challenges and dilemmas faced by all those who deal with the relationship of the Old Testament with the New Testament, especially as regards the New Testament authors' understanding and application of the Old Testament. In this interpretative process, we must reflect on the importance of the role of the typological method in the course of the Church's history on this theme.
As well as identifying which theological resources guided the New Testament interpretation of the Old Testament texts; identify the impact of apostolic authority on the production of New Testament writings; demonstrate how typological studies contribute to this problem; and raise the challenges that are required to build a secure path for the interconnections between the New and Old Testament.
For this, the bibliographical research was used as a method for collecting data, through the study raised in the theoretical reference on the dilemmas and challenges of the modern interpreter who sincerely seeks to extract through the sacred texts the message that God has designated for humanity.
From the data analysis, it was possible to perceive the importance of the typological literature in the objective of guiding the interpreter in the understanding of the use of the Old Testament in the New Testament. The observation of the context of the Old Testament by the authors of the New Testament also receives a lot of attention, since it imposes itself as a great challenge in the understanding of the interconnections of the Old Testament with the New Testament.
Thus, through all the study and theological suggestions presented, it was possible to confirm that the typological literary method presents itself as the theory that best responds to the way New Testament writers use the Old Testament texts.
