520 |a The tale of Susanna in the Greek versions of the book of Daniel has its roots in allegorical readings of Hebrew Scripture, and the church has read the story of Susanna both as an allegory of the church and of Christ. The allegorical treatment of Susanna as the church is the most acceptable to modern criticism, since it preserves the narrative coherence of the book; but the more fragmentary, piecemeal allegory of Susanna as Christ was compelling in antiquity, especially in visual interpretations. This essay explores how allegorical readings of Susanna as a Christ figure capture an essential part of the reader's visual, non-sequential experience of the text and provides a satisfying and meaningful image for Christians.
