His Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul (1989) invigorated the study of the apostle Paul's use of the OT. To attempt to read the NT independently of the OT is to misread the NT.Ī pioneer in this branch of recent scholarship is Richard Hays, the George Washington Ivey Professor of New Testament at Duke Divinity School in Durham, NC. Students of the NT increasingly appreciate the degree to which the OT is woven into the warp and woof of the NT message. One salutary trend in the last generation of the academic study of the NT has been a growing estimation of the place and importance of the OT to the NT. And it speaks with divine authority - like the NT, it is the very word of God. It serves a range of purposes, whether for witness to unbelief or for the instruction and guidance of the church. The OT surfaces on virtually every page of the NT. One does not have to preach, teach, or even read the New Testament for long in order to discover how steeped its authors are in the Old Testament. ![]()
