by G. K. Beale (Author)

A how-to approach for interpreting and analyzing the use of the Old Testament in the New

In this concise guide, G. K. Beale, coeditor of the bestselling Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, focuses on the "how to" of interpreting the New Testament use of the Old Testament. He provides students and pastors with many of the insights and categories necessary for them to do their own exegesis, including

● criteria for discerning Old Testament references
● methods for interpreting and analyzing quotations and allusions
● primary ways the New Testament uses the Old Testament
● hermeneutical and theological presuppositions of New Testament authors
● examination of the relevance of Jewish backgrounds and the Old Testament

Brief enough to be accessible yet thorough enough to be useful, this handbook is a trusted guide for all students of the Bible.

Back Jacket

During the last four decades, not a little serious work has been undertaken to understand better how the New Testament cites the Old. Quite a lot of it was written by Greg Beale. Here, however, he keeps the student in mind and provides an introduction to the subject, complete with helpful bibliographies, useful illustrations, and step-by-step demonstrations of how to think through these issues. Not only seminary students but also pastors committed to expository preaching will be hugely thankful for this important handbook.
--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

"In his Handbook on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament Professor Beale has provided readers with a guide that complements his magisterial New Testament Biblical Theology: The Unfolding of the Old Testament in the New as well as the Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, which he and several colleagues produced. What we now have is a complete package: commentary, theology, and a very concise handbook that shows us step by step how this important work is to be done."
--Craig A. Evans, Acadia Divinity College, Nova Scotia, Canada

"This handbook provides readers with a wonderful overview of key issues in and tools for the study of the use of the Old Testament in the New. I expect it to become a standard textbook for courses on the subject (as it will be for mine) and the first book to which newcomers will be directed."
--Roy E. Ciampa, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

"This volume fills a gap by providing serious students of Scripture with a helpful tool for interpreting Old Testament citations and allusions in the New Testament. Beale's magisterial grasp of the subject enables him to present a complex and technical yet intriguing subject in such a way that mere mortals are equipped to engage in the study of the New Testament use of the Old Testament on their own."
--Andreas J. Köstenberger, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

"Greg Beale has distinguished himself throughout an illustrious teaching and writing career with his work on the relationships between the testaments. Fresh from producing his magnum opus, a New Testament biblical theology that is thoroughly informed by such uses, Beale here provides a much more manageably sized distillation of the main issues involved in understanding the New Testament's use of the Old Testament."
--Craig L. Blomberg, Denver Seminary
