David Being a Prophet: The Contingency of Scripture upon History in the New Testament

This book identifies occasions in the New Testament where Scripture is interpreted as though its meaning depends upon its author or time of writing. Focusing upon Hebrews, Acts and the ‘Davidssohnfrage’ in the Synoptic Gospels, it argues that this ‘historical’ approach to interpretation is an important but overlooked element of the use of Scripture in the New Testament.
