| Summary: | This volume contributes 10 essays to the discussion of early biblical interpretation and the developments of biblical traditions in early Judaism and Christianity. As the title implies, the book groups its essays into two parts: the first dealing broadly with ‘how sacred tradition is expanded and interpreted in the Pseudepigrapha, especially through vision’ (p. ix), the second discussing more specifically themes of ‘violence, polemic, and judgment’ (p. ix). Since the contributions touch on an array of texts and methods, I shall give a brief mention to each essay before ending with the volume as a whole. |
