Abasciano builds upon his previous LNTS volume, Paul's Use
of the Old Testament in Romans 9.1-9, continuing the project begun in that
volume and its intertextual methodology. This method incorporates into a
thorough traditional exegesis a comprehensive analysis of Paul's use of
Scripture against the background of interpretive traditions surrounding the
texts alluded to, with great emphasis placed on analyzing the original contexts
of Paul's citations and allusions. Such an intertextual exegesis is conducted
in Romans 9:10-18 with an awareness of the broader unit of chapters 9-11
especially, and also the epistle as a whole. Conclusions for the meaning of
these passages and their theological significance are drawn. LNTS and SSEJC
