Reviews

'This book successfully draws attention to an under-studied area of patristic reception of the Hebrew scriptures and make a good case for the importance of the original Hebrew of the 'Old Testament' for considerations of canon, language and text. [...] stimulating and well-researched book [...] at whose richness and interest this review can only hint.' James Carleton Paget, Theologische Literaturzeitung 137 (2012) 12
