Old Testament account relates a type of Christ, Sperry speaker says
PROVO, Utah — Sandwiched between two of the most spectacular stories in the Old Testament is a story about a borrowed tool. On one side is the story about Elisha directing the leper Naaman to dip himself in the river to be cleansed. On the other side is the story of a siege where Elisha calls upon God's angels to blind an army.
And in between are seven verses about a floating axe head.
Blair G. Van Dyke spoke at the 38th annual Sidney B. Sperry Symposium at Brigham Young University about how the story of a borrowed axe head that ends up floating is a beautiful testimony of Jesus Christ.
