New Studies in Textual Interplay (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780567678973)

This volume features a body of work selected by Craig A. Evans, B. J. Oropeza, and Paul T. Sloan, designed to examine just what is meant by 'intertextuality, ' including metalepsis and the controversial and exciting approach known as 'mimesis.' Beginning with an introduction from Oropeza which orients readers in a complex and evolving field, the contributors first establish the growing research surrounding the discipline, before examining important texts and themes in the New Testament Gospels and epistles.

Throughout, these essays critically evaluate new proposals relating to intertextuality and the function of ancient Scripture in the writings that came to make up the New Testament. With topics ranging from multidimensional recontextualization and ancient Midrash in the age of intertextuality to Luke's Christology and multivalent biblical images, this volume amasses cutting edge research on intertexuality and biblical exegesis
