The Psalms In The New Testament

The Psalms in the New Testament offers, for the first time, a set of studies that give an overview of the role and function of the Psalms in the first century, both at Qumran and in the New Testament. This ground-breaking collection forms an important research tool for Septuagintal and manuscript studies, first-century hermeneutics and the development of Christian apologetics and theology. Each chapter focuses on a particular biblical book and considers matters of textual form, points of particular interest and hermeneutics. The book is introduced and edited by Steve Moyise and Maarten J. J. Menken and includes contributions from George J. Brooke, Rikk Watts, Michael Labahn, Peter Doble, Margaret Daly-Denton, Sylvia C. Keesmaat, H.H. Drake Williams III, Thorsten Moritz, Harold W. Attridge and Sue Woan. Book jacket.
