Ancient Readers and their Scriptures explores the various ways that
ancient Jewish and Christian writers engaged with and interpreted
the Hebrew Bible in antiquity, focusing on physical mechanics of
rewriting and reuse, modes of allusion and quotation, texts and
text forms, text collecting, and the development of interpretative
traditions. Contributions examine the use of the Hebrew Bible and
its early versions in a variety of ancient corpora, including the
Septuagint, Dead Sea Scrolls, New Testament, and Rabbinic works,
analysing the vast array of textual permutations that define
ancient engagement with Jewish scripture. This volume argues that
the processes of reading and cognition, influenced by the physical
and intellectual contexts of interpretation, are central aspects of
ancient biblical interpretation that are underappreciated in
current scholarship.
