The Cross and Its Shadow
Stephen Nelson Haskell (1833–1922) was an evangelist, missionary and editor in the Seventh-day Adventist Church who became one of the pioneers of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the South Pacific.
He also authored several books The Story of Daniel the Prophet, The Story of the Seer of Patmos, and The Cross and Its Shadow.
At the present day the person who comes to the study of the New Testament through the interpreting lights of the types and symbols of the Levitical services, finds a depth and richness in the study that are found in no other way. It is impossible to have exalted views of Christ's atoning work if the New Testament is studied without a previous knowledge of the deep, bloodstained foundations in the Old Testament gospels of Moses and the prophets.
In "The Cross and Its Shadow, " the type and the antitype are placed side by side, with the hope that the reader may thus become better acquainted with the Savior. It is not the intention of the author of this work to attack any error that may have been taught in regard to the service of the sanctuary, or to arouse any controversy, but simply to present the truth in its clearness.
The book is the result of many years of prayerful study of the types and symbols of the sanctuary service, and is sent forth with a prayer that the reading of it may arrest the attention of the thoughtless, give the Christian new views of Christ's character, and lead many into the sunlight of God's love.

Excellent book. It follows the plan of salvation through the Old Testament Sanctuary. I would recommend this book to anyone who want to learn more about the plan of salvation through the Sanctuary services. Psalm 77:13 "Thy way oh God, is in the Sanctuary..."

Excellent Resource Book
This is the best book I have ever read on the Jewish sanctuary and it's services.This book explains each of the services (antitype) in the sanctuary and how they relate to Jesus (type). In addition, there is a chapter about the character of each of the 12 tribes that will be represented in heaven. The 144,000 is explained in a very easy to understand manner and how the characters of the 12 tribes is related to the characters of those in the 144,000.

A Rarely Discussed, Important Subject in the Churches.
A well researched writing on the Sanctuary Service and a comparative reflection in regards to the life of Christ. The chapter right towards the end, " The Hundred and Forty-Four Thousand" being vitally important.
