The four Gospels unanimously present Jesus as someone who quoted
from, commented on, and engaged with the Scriptures of Israel.
Whether this portrayal goes back to the historical Jesus has been a
hotly debated issue among scholars. In this book, eleven expert
researchers from four different continents tackle the question
anew. This is done through detailed study of specific themes and
passages from the Scriptures which Jesus, according to the Gospels,
quoted or alluded to. Among the various topics investigated are
Jesus' use of Genesis 2 to bolster his teaching on divorce, his
reference to the Queen of Sheba story in 1 Kings, the significance
of the Book of Zechariah for Jesus' self-understanding, and his
enigmatic quotation of Psalm 22 on the cross. These and other
contributions result in a common understanding of Jesus' use of the
Scriptures. Not only did Jesus engage with the Scriptures,
according to these scholars, but his mode of engagement has to be
placed within the early Jewish interpretative framework within
which he lived.
