[Methodology in the Use of the Old Testament in the New] stands as a valuable assessment of the status quaestionis with regard to methods of study of the [Old Testament]’s use in the [New Testament; several of the essays suggest conceptual and methodological tools by which the field may grow in the future. The book in its entirety would serve as an excellent primer for advanced students who need to understand the scholarly terrain. All scholars who work in the field will find here something informative, and at times provocative, within the wide range of interests and expertise that the book presents.

- Chris Blumhofer, Biblische Notizen

This volume brings together scholars of both the Old and New Testaments to discuss three areas of methodological interest in respect of the use of the Old Testament in the New (OT/NT). It begins with an interdisciplinary conversation into insights that OT/NT scholars might glean from other related disciplines and approaches. The subsequent essays consider the notion of an Old Testament text’s ‘context’, and how contemporaneous authors such as Philo or the Qumran community conceived of, and attended to, the concept. The contributors then turn their focus to the criteria that can/should be used for determining Old Testament allusions or echoes, and the legitimacy for so doing, particularly responding to the work of Richard Hays. The volume closes with a fresh proposal for OT/NT methodology, along with a concluding reflection on the collected essays.
