Michael Fishbane refers to OT "typologies of an historical nature," as a kind 
of
inner-biblical interpretation (Biblical Interpretation in Ancient Israel 
[Oxford: The
Clarendon Press, 1985], 358-68).  You might want to write to him concerning 
his
mistaken terminology.

I dare not ask why "intertestamental" doesn't qualify as "inner biblical."
