Summary:

The Paul and Scripture Seminar met for six years, 2005-10, under the aegis of the Society's annual meeting. It was intended to discuss and try to resolve methodological problems that had arisen in the study of the apostle Paul's many and varied references to the Jewish Scriptures. Papers from the first three were published in the 2008 As It Is Written: Studying Paul's Use of Scripture. Here are papers from the final three, along with some additional articles written expressly for the volume. The Society of Biblical Literature publishes the paperbound edition; Brill publishes the hardbound. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
