"Hays has without doubt posed the right question at the right time
within the horizon of a particularly important problematic. . . . A
new beginning for the question concerning the reception of the Old
Testament in the New."—Hans Hübner, Theologische
Literaturzeitung
"A powerful reading. . . . [Hays’s] careful and fresh exegesis . .
. challenges not a few traditional or highly regarded readings. . .
. A major contribution both to Pauline studies and to our
understanding of earliest Christian theology as a living dialogue
with the scriptures of Israel."—James D. G. Dunn, forthcoming in
Literature and Theology
"This lively excellent book is a fine effort to link the two worlds
of modern critical New Testament scholarship and literary
criticism. The book is clear and accessible to the nonspecialist as
well as the New Testament scholar. It is up-to-date in the two
worlds it seeks to bring closer together and discriminating in its
use of secondary literature from each."—John H. Schütz, Bowman and
Gordon Gray Professor Emeritus, The University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill
"Written in a direct, engaging, lively manner, this is a study of
great interest to literary students, whether of methods of
allusiveness or of biblical literature."—Eleanor Cook, professor of
English, University of Toronto
"In the letters of Paul, the serious reader is faced with the
fascinating challenge of developing a sensitivity to the resonances
of intertextuality, and it is here that Hays makes his weighty and
exciting contribution, helping us to sense the remarkable ways in
which Paul heard the voice of scripture far beyond the confines of
formal citation."—J. Louis Martyn, Edward Robinson Professor
Emeritus of Biblical Theology, Union Theological Seminary
