Von der hinteren Coverseite

This volume offers a brief but reliable introduction to the use of the Old Testament in the Gospels' portrayals of Jesus.

"This balanced and informed survey of a fascinating and controversial topic--Jesus and Scripture--should serve students well. A first-rate introduction."
--Dale C. Allison, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary

"Recent study of the New Testament has demonstrated the crucial role played by Scripture in the development of the tradition. In this study of Jesus and Scripture, Steve Moyise turns to the most fundamental question of all, How did Jesus himself use it? His lucid discussion not only provides an excellent survey of the topic but also introduces students to the interlocking problems of the reliability of the tradition and the relationships of the Gospels to one another."
--Morna D. Hooker, Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity Emerita, University of Cambridge

"Steve Moyise's Jesus and Scripture begins with concise assessments of how Jesus used and understood Old Testament Scripture in the four respective New Testament Gospels. Moyise then surveys opinions on the subject from a range of scholars, from those who think Jesus made little or no use of Scripture to those who think that Jesus made extensive use of Scripture. This excellent book strikes the right balance and brings clarity to a subject that is often discussed in convoluted and confusing ways. Its value for students is obvious, but veteran scholars will also find it very helpful."
--Craig A. Evans, Payzant Distinguished Professor of New Testament, Acadia Divinity College
