This study argues that a theological approach to understanding Paul's appeal to and reading of the Old Testament, especially Isaiah, offers important insights into the ways in which Christians should read the Old Testament and a two-testament canon today. By way of example, this study explores the ways in which Isaiah 40-66's canonical form presents the gospel in miniature with its movement from Israel to Servant to servants. It is subsequently argued that Paul follows this literary movement in his own theological reflection in 2 Corinthians 5:14-6:10. Jesus takes on the unique role and identity of the Servant of Isaiah 40-55, and Paul takes on the role of the servants of the Servant in Isaiah 53-66. From this exegetical exploration conclusions are drawn in the final chapter that seek to apply a term from the history of interpretation to Paul's reading, that is, the plain sense of Scripture. What does an appeal to plain sense broker? And does Paul's reading of the Old Testament look anything like a plain sense reading? Gignilliat concludes that Paul is reading the Old Testament in such a way that the literal sense and its figural potential and capacity are not divorced but are actually organically linked in what can be termed a plain sense reading."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aLibrary of New Testament studies ;$v330. 410 0$aT & T Clark library of biblical studies. 606 $2Biblical studies & exegesis 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a227.306 700 $aGignilliat$b Mark S.$0951290 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461542303321 996 $aPaul and Isaiah's servants$92150414 997 $aUNINA
