Biblical Quotations and Allusions in Second Temple Jewish Literature by Armin Lange
Jewish literature from the Second Temple period is characterized by extensive use of authoritative writings. The Qumran text finds have made this characteristic of ancient Jewish literature particularly clear. Until now, science had to rely on the textual knowledge of the researchers to identify such quotations and allusions. It has recently become possible to identify them using electronic databases. Using the new technology, this publication is the first to compile comprehensive lists of citations and allusions to the books of the Hebrew Bible in Jewish literature from the Second Temple period. Many of the quotations and allusions mentioned here were identified for the first time. The lists presented here are an indispensable aid for everyone who works on ancient Judaism in general or on the interpretation and text history of the Hebrew Bible in particular. The quotes and allusions are arranged on the one hand according to the book, chapter and sequence of the Hebrew Bible and on the other hand according to the sequence of the quoting and alluding texts.
