Intertextuality in the Second Century

This volume offers an appreciation of the value of intertextuality--from Greek, Roman, Jewish, and biblical traditions--as related to the post-apostolic level of Christian development within the second century. Here one sees biblical texts at work, Jewish and Greek foundations at play, and interaction among patristic authors.
