Hays's analysis of intertextual echoes in Paul's letters has touched off exciting debate among Pauline scholars and made more recognizable the contours of Paul's thought. These studies contain some of the early work leading up to Hays's seminal Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul and also show how Hays has responded to critics and further developed his thought in the years since. Among the many subjects covered here are Paul's christological application of Psalms, Paul's revisionary interpretation of the Law, and the influence of the Old Testament on Paul's ethical teachings and ecclesiology.

About the Author
Richard B. Hays (1948–2025) taught for nearly three decades at Duke Divinity School, where he held the position of George Washington Ivey Professor of New Testament and also served for five years as the divinity school’s dean. Hays was internationally known for his work on New Testament ethics, the Gospels, and the letters of Paul. His groundbreaking book The Moral Vision of the New Testament was selected by Christianity Today as one of the 100 most important religious books of the twentieth century. His other publications included Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul, Echoes of Scripture in the Gospels, The Conversion of the Imagination, and Reading with the Grain of Scripture. In 2022, the British Academy awarded him the Burkitt Medal for his work in New Testament studies.
