Tried and tested in previous editions, it explores the  basic issues and offers summaries of the uses of the Old Testament in  the Gospels and Acts, in Paul and Hebrews, James, and Revelation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIssues  of quotation, allusion and echo are fully explored and placed  sensitively in the context of the differing approaches to the interpretation of Old Testament texts. Readers are informed of  contemporary debates that have arisen from literary criticism, such as  the questions of intertextuality and the uses of allegory. Also discussed are the uses of the Bible in the first century. For the second edition two entirely new chapters on 'Jesus and Scripture' and 'James and 1-3 John' have been added, as well as full revisions to the text where necessary to take account of changes and developments in scholarship. Each chapter  includes a summary-conclusion, and extensive and detailed suggestions  for further reading. This is an ideal textbook for undergraduate students.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“With his command of both theory and texts, as well as his central role in the relevant scholarly debates, Steve Moyise is probably the leading authority in 'the Old Testament in the New'.
