This volume will provide important grist for the mill for those interested in biblical hermeneutics. -- Gary A. Anderson, Professor of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, University of Notre Dame

This welcome collection of essays marks a noteworthy contribution to the study of intertextual dimensions of biblical interpretation. -- A. K. M. Adam, Professor of New Testament, Bowdoin College

A rich and dense resource, this book takes seriously its interdisciplinary aim. -- Alison M. Jack -- Journal for the Study of the New Testament

Reading the Bible Intertextually explores the revisionary hermeneutical practices of the writers of the four gospels. Each of the contributors examines the distinctive ways that the canonical evangelists put a particular ""spin"" on the story of Jesus through rereading the Old Testament in different ways. In addition, the evangelists' different ways of reading Israel's Scripture are correlated with different visions for the embodied life of the community of Jesus' followers. This is an exciting new reading of the gospels, bringing interdisciplinary and intertextual readings to the texts, articulated by some of the most brilliant New Testament scholars of our time.
