Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament
When the two editors of this volume began the project almost a decade ago, neither of us anticipated that it would take this long to bring it to completion. Unrealistic expectations, illness among the contributors and their families, and shifting and competing obligations all conspired to delay the project. We are profoundly grateful for the patience of the contributors who managed to submit their work in a timely manner, some of whom updated their work later, and of Baker Academic, whose editorial staff encouraged and even cajoled editors and contributors alike, but never nagged.
Yet we would also be the first to acknowledge how privileged we are to have worked on this. With many other Christians, we have thought long and hard about how the Bible hangs together, how later parts use earlier parts, and how in particular the NT documents cite or allude to the OT. Both of us have devoted a considerable part of our academic lives to these questions. So to labor with a team of scholars who have systematically worked through the evidence and to read and interact with what they have written and prepare it for the press has left us feeling enriched, and we are grateful.
