Title: Paul's Use of the Old Testament in Romans 9.10-18
Description: This volume continues Brian J. Abasciano's intertextual exegesis of Romans 9 started in his acclaimed volume, Paul's Use of the Old Testament in Romans 9.1-9. Abasciano's method incorporates into a thorough traditional exegesis a comprehensive analysis of Paul's use of scripture against the background of interpretive traditions surrounding the texts alluded to, with great emphasis placed on analyzing the original contexts of Paul's citations and allusions. This intertextual exegesis is conducted with an awareness of the broader unit of chapters 9-11 especially, as well as the epistle as a whole. Based on careful, detailed exegesis, Abasciano tackes controversial theological subjects with precision and depth, such as election and divine hardening of human beings, shedding light on Paul's theology as it unfolds in Rom. 9.10-18. - Back cover.
