Hays. These essays probe Paul's approach to scriptural interpretation, showing how Paul's reading of the Hebrew Scriptures reshaped the theological vision of his churches.` `Hays's analysis of intertextual echoes in Paul's letters has touched off a debate among Pauline scholars and made more recognizable the contours of Paul's thought. These studies contain some of the early work leading up to Hays's seminal Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul and also show how Hays has responded to critics and further developed his thought in the years since. Among the many subjects covered here are Paul's Christological application of Psalms, Paul's revisionary interpretation of the Law, and the influence of the Old Testament on Paul's ethical teachings and ecclesiology.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Richard Bevan Hays</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Epistles of Paul</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">227.06</classification> <classification authority="ddc">R511-H42</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0802812627</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/31/_03068930_140.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/8/31/_03068930_140.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070735.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
