This title was first published in 2003. The book bearing the title
of 'Zechariah' is, in its present form, an amalgam of oracles and
prophecies stemming from Zechariah himself as well as others. It
became part of Jewish scripture, was revered and valued, and was a
partiuclar favourite of a number of early Christian writers. Often
cited by New Testament writers, this book of one of the most
important of the 'minor prophets' is itself deeply indebted to
earlier Jewish prophetic texts and has been an important resource
for later writers, Jewish and Christian, as they sought to tap
their own 'Biblical' material. The amalgam of oracles and
prophecies presented in the book of Zechariah offers an ideal
thematic focus for the leading scholars in this volume who explore
areas of the Hebrew Bible, post-Biblical Jewish literature, and
early Christian literature and history (in the New Testament and
beyond). The essays examine the book of Zechariah itself as well as
its subsequent interpretation by a number of other writers, Jewish
and Christian. The essays raise important issues in relation to the
influence of biblical texts in subsequent literature and also the
broad area of 'intertextuality'' and the way in which later texts
relate to and use earlier texts in their sacred tradition.
