Longenecker has produced a stunning study which zeroes in on a surprisingly neglected literary and rhetorical phenomenon in the Bible?the chain-link or interlock construction (A-b/a-B).

His careful and convincing formalist investigation of the chain-link constructions will surely prove itself an indispensable resource for the exegesis of Biblical texts. A must-read for all serious biblical scholars. ?David E. Aune, Professor o...

A must-read for all serious biblical scholars. ?David E. Aune, Professor of New Testament, University of Notre Dame Bruce Longenecker has identified a gap in our understanding of the structure of ancient texts: the chain-link transition. He carefully defines the form, function, and character of this transition within the Graeco-Roman rhetorical tradition, ancient texts, and the New Testament. This accomplishment would be splendid enough, but he also discusses the theological, structural, and historical significance of chain-link interlock. Longenecker provides a fresh and welcomed contribution to New Testament studies. ?Duane F. Watson, Professor of New Testament Studies, Malone College
