David:
I don't want to appear to be nit-picking, but did you not notice when
consulting Appendix IV that only one [ Ro. 3:10 ] is in italics, thus
denoting a _direct_ quotation, whereas the others in normal type are
described as 'allusions' ?.
Or so N/E 27 notes on p.83*
I have in the past wondered at some of the connections between texts being
made as 'allusions' in these lists in N/E.
I appreciate that individual judgement is involved. but I would ask you
to look at Testament of Reuben 5.5 and then check on the 'allusion' to 1
Co. 6:18
I think you will agree that this tells us more about the mentality of the
compiler of the list than it does about Paul !!
Regards,
Maurice
