Armed with new questions, interpreters seek to understand better 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEarly Christian Literature and Intertextuality\u003c\/i\u003e includes essays that explore the use of Old Testament scripture in the Gospels and Acts.
