Bible Question: Could someone consider Caleb as "type" of Holy Spirit as Joshua was a "type" of Jesus? |
Bible Answer: Hi PJC, Welcome to the forum. We encourage everyone to tell us about themselves so do that when you get the chance. I perceive that you may have done some deep thinking about your question. I think that your suggestion has some merit. I don't think that Caleb is a type of the Holy Spirit, but I would like to hear what you think. I do however think that he may be a "type" of one who is to be filled with the holy spirit. Numbers 14:22, "Surely all the men who have seen My glory and My signs, which I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me/ to the test these ten times and have not listened to My voice, 23 shall by no means see the land which I swore to their fathers, nor shall any of those who spurned (Me) see it. 24 But My servant Caleb, because he has had a *different spirit and has followed Me fully, *him I will bring into the land which he entered, and his descendents shall take possession of it." Joel 2:27,NKJ, "Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the Lord your God/ and there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame. And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out (My) Spirit [I would say spirit] on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit [spirit] in those days." The parentheses, slashes, and brackets are mine for comparisons. When we get to know each other better, perhaps I can go into more foolishness like that further. We might look more at 2 Corinthians 11:4 where it talks (I think in contrast) of a "different spirit".
