Xiaxia Xue has written an important and challenging book on intertextuality in Romans 9-11... she fully embraces both the dialogical nature of intertexts and the role that a robust theory of linguistics can play in engaging such interactive voices. I warmly recommend this book as providing a major step forward both in method and in understanding how Paul creates his argument in this important part of his letter to the Romans. This is a book to be read and contemplated.
