In the process of completing this book, Hays experienced serious medical issues that both delayed the volume and raised questions about whether it would even be completed. Three decades later, Hays has provided a new generation of students with a similarly titled volume aimed at examining intertextuality in the canonical gospels. ![]() Among those contributions is his now classic treatment of intertextuality in the Pauline literature, Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1993)-one of the primary works through which a generation of students was introduced to the subject.
