<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Shows how Deuteronomy was influential in Jewish life and liturgy and how it bears on Paul's relationship to the Law.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This study offers a fresh, thorough engagement with Paul's use of Deuteronomy, paying full attention to the concrete realities of Paul's exposure, in life and literature, to Torah. David Lincicum compares Paul's handling of Deuteronomy to the treatment of Deuteronomy in other contemporary Jewish sources. He shows how this key book of Jewish Scripture was influential in Jewish life and liturgy and how it bears on Paul's relationship to the Law. <p/>Originally published by Mohr Siebeck in the Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament series, this work is now available as an affordable North American paperback.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"A solid study, structurally coherent and methodologically accurate, convincing in theological scope and attractive in its results."<br>--<b>Markus Tiwald</b>, <i>Theologische Literaturzeitung <p/></i>"This book is to be highly recommended, both for the insights it offers into Paul's scriptural exegesis and as a model for other studies, demonstrating what can be achieved by focusing on a later author's interpretation of a biblical book as a whole."<br>--<b>Susan E. Docherty</b>, <i>Journal for the Study of the New Testament<br></i><br>"Sensitivities to intertextuality and to 'echoes of Scripture' have expanded attention from a narrow focus on specific quotations towards the way received Scriptures function within subsequent texts. Lincicum's study is a model of such an approach. . . . The study is carefully carried out, displaying an impressive control of the secondary literature as well as of interpretative issues regarding the primary sources."<br>--<b>J. M. Lieu</b>, <i>Journal for the Study of the Old Testament<br></i><br>"This book is recommended for anyone interested in Biblical interpretation in early Judaism and in the Pauline writings."<br>--<b>Nijay K. Gupta</b>, <i>Religious Studies Review<br></i><br>"The book is well-written, well organized, and easy to follow in its main arguments. . . . Lincicum has made a valuable contribution to our understanding of how Deuteronomy was appropriated in the centuries surrounding the NT."<br>--<b>Matthew S. Harmon</b>, <i>Themelios<br></i><br>"The work is exceptional. . . . This Septuagint specialist finds it especially praiseworthy that Lincicum's treatment of the textual forms of Deuteronomy in the Second Temple period reflects a profound understanding of the textual situation in both the Hebrew and Greek traditions. . . . The level of engagement is profound, and Lincicum's witty style makes the book enjoyable to read."<br>--<b>T. M. Law</b>, <i>Journal of Jewish Studies <p/></i>"With this study Lincicum offers a systematic treatment of a very broad theme that has hitherto not received such broad treatment. [Lincicum] clearly demonstrates that Paul does not represent a rupture from the Jewish interpretive tradition but is rooted as a thinker and author in his native environment."<br>--<b>Simone Paganini</b>, <i>Studien zum Neuen Testament und seiner Umwelt<br></i><br>Originally published by Mohr Siebeck in the Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament series<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>David Lincicum</b> (DPhil, University of Oxford) is university lecturer in New Testament and G. B. Caird Fellow in New Testament Theology at Mansfield College, University of Oxford. He is the recipient of a Manfred LautenschlÄger Award for Theological Promise 2013 for <i>Paul and the Early Jewish Encounter with Deuteronomy</i> and is the author or coeditor of several forthcoming books.
