What does the Bible say about Adam being a type of Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible indicates that Adam is a type of Christ, primarily in Romans 5:14, showing that both are federal heads representing a people.

The concept of Adam as a type of Christ is rooted in his role as a federal head and representative of all mankind. Romans 5:14 tells us that Adam was a figure of the one who was to come—Christ. Both Adam and Christ serve as the beginning of a people and the basis of all God's dealings with humanity. Adam's sin introduced death into the world, which is then contrasted with the life and resurrection offered through Christ. Understanding this typology is key for comprehending the entirety of Scripture, as it establishes the foundation for God's redemptive plan through Christ.
