"A solid study, structurally coherent and methodologically accurate, convincing in theological scope and attractive in its results."
--Markus Tiwald, Theologische Literaturzeitung
"This book is to be highly recommended, both for the insights it offers into Paul's scriptural exegesis and as a model for other studies, demonstrating what can be achieved by focusing on a later author's interpretation of a biblical book as a whole."
--Susan E. Docherty, Journal for the Study of the New Testament
"Sensitivities to intertextuality and to 'echoes of Scripture' have expanded attention from a narrow focus on specific quotations towards the way received Scriptures function within subsequent texts. Lincicum's study is a model of such an approach. . . . The study is carefully carried out, displaying an impressive control of the secondary literature as well as of interpretative issues regarding the primary sources."
--J. M. Lieu, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament
"This book is recommended for anyone interested in Biblical interpretation in early Judaism and in the Pauline writings."
--Nijay K. Gupta, Religious Studies Review
"The book is well-written, well organized, and easy to follow in its main arguments. . . . Lincicum has made a valuable contribution to our understanding of how Deuteronomy was appropriated in the centuries surrounding the NT."
--Matthew S. Harmon, Themelios
"The work is exceptional. . . . This Septuagint specialist finds it especially praiseworthy that Lincicum's treatment of the textual forms of Deuteronomy in the Second Temple period reflects a profound understanding of the textual situation in both the Hebrew and Greek traditions. . . . The level of engagement is profound, and Lincicum's witty style makes the book enjoyable to read."
--T. M. Law, Journal of Jewish Studies
"With this study Lincicum offers a systematic treatment of a very broad theme that has hitherto not received such broad treatment. [Lincicum] clearly demonstrates that Paul does not represent a rupture from the Jewish interpretive tradition but is rooted as a thinker and author in his native environment."
