Sitting alongside the partner volumes Reading Job Intertextually
(2012) and Reading Ecclesiastes Intertextually (2014) also
published in the Library of Hebrew and Old testament Studies, this
addition to the series continues the study of intertextuality in
the Hebrew Bible. Dell and Kynes provide the first comprehensive
treatment of intertextuality in Proverbs. Topics addressed include
the intertextual resonances between Proverbs, and texts across the
Hebrew canon, as well as texts throughout history, from the Dead
Sea Scrolls to African and Chinese proverbial literature. The
contributions, though comprehensive, do not provide clear-cut
answers, but rather invite further study into connections between
Proverbs and external texts, highlighting ideas and issues in
relation to the extra texts discussed themselves. The volume
gathers together scholars with specific expertise on the array of
texts that intersect with Proverbs and these scholars in turn bring
their own insights to the texts at hand. In particular the
contributors have been encouraged to pursue the intertextual
approach that best suits their topic, thereby offering readers a
valuable collection of intertextual case studies that address a
single biblical book.
