The a study of Deuteronomy 30:12-14 in Paul's Letter to the Romans in a Jewish context Bekken, Per Jarle. creator text bibliography Electronic books Criticism, interpretation, etc. gw Berlin New York Walter de Gruyter 2007 monographic eng 1 online resource (xiii, 294 pages) The study deals with a much-debated text in Paul's Letter to the Romans, 9:30-10:21. The study in particular analyses Paul's use and interpretation of Deuteronomy 30:12-14 in Romans 10:4-17. Scholars have characterized Paul's exegesis here as idiosyncratic, fanciful, baffling, and arbitrary. By a comparison with Jewish writings, such as the writings of Philo of Alexandria and Baruch, the thesis is argued that Paul's treatment of Deuteronomy 30:12-14 can be located within Jewish exegetical method, expository structure, terminology as well as content and context.
