Scholarly interest in intertextuality remains as keen as ever.
Armed with new questions, interpreters seek to improve their
understanding of the function of older scripture in later
scripture. The essays assembled in the present collection address
these questions. These essays treat pre-Christian texts, as well as
Christian texts, that make use of older sacred tradition. They
analyze the respective uses of scripture in diverse Jewish and
Christian traditions. Some of these studies are concerned with
discreet bodies of writings, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, while
others are concerned with versions of scriptures, such as the
Hebrew or Old Greek, and text critical issues. Other studies are
concerned with how scripture is interpreted as part of apocalyptic
and eschatology.
"Early Christian Literature and Intertextuality" includes essays
that explore the use of Old Testament scripture in the Gospels and
Acts. Other studies examine the Apostle Paul's interpretation of
scripture in his letters, while other studies look at non-Pauline
writings and their utilization of scripture. Some of the studies in
this collection show how older scripture clarifies important points
of teaching or resolves social conflict, law, conversion,
anthropology, paradise, and Messianism are among the themes treated
in these studies, themes rooted in important ways in older sacred
tradition. The collection concludes with studies on two important
Christian interpreters, Syriac-speaking Aphrahat in the east and
Latin-speaking Augustine in the west.
