Citations and Allusions in Wisdom Literature

Citations and Allusions - or intertextuality, to invoke the more common, but less precise label - in the Hebrew Bible are the focus of a research unit of the European Association of Biblical Studies directed by the editors of the present issue of Biblische Notizen. The sessions of that unit at the 2022 annual conference in Toulouse were devoted to case studies from the realm of wisdom literature as broadly construed, with contributions on Psalms, Job, Proverbs, Song of Songs, Qohelet, and Ben Sira. The present issue contains a critical selection of papers read in Toulouse, complemented by an additional contribution.
