Abstract:
The New Testament and the Septuagint share a bound fate in their common reception. Indeed, the Septuagint functions as the great predecessor text that serves as an ‘encyclopaedia’ for the authors of the New Testament, and so makes sense of many distinctive modes of expression and theological concepts which the earliest Christian authors employ. This chapter surveys the New Testament’s debt to the Septuagint’s language, ideas, and canon, then goes on to offer a brief overview of the individual writings of the New Testament from the perspective of their use of the Greek Jewish Scriptures.
