Numerous books and articles have engaged with the ancient sources to trace various themes, including \"Messiah\" language itself, exalted patriarchs, angel mediators, \"wisdom\" and \"word,\" eschatology, and much more. But anyone who attempts to study the Jewish roots of early Christianity faces a challenge: the primary sources are wide-ranging, involve ancient languages, and are often very difficult to track down. Books are littered with citations and a host of other sometimes obscure writings, and it can be difficult to sort them all out.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book makes a much-needed contribution by bringing together the most important primary texts for the study of Jewish messianism and early Christology--nearly three hundred in total--and presenting the reader with essential information to study them: the critical text itself (with apparatus), a fresh translation, a current bibliography, and thematic tags that allow the reader to trace themes across the corpus.

The contributors to this volume show the potential of such crossover work through, for example, exploring how paratextual features of papyri and minuscules give insight into their text; probing how scribal behaviors illumine textual transmission\/restoration, and examining how colometry, inner-biblical references, and early church reading cultures may contribute to understanding canon formation.
