An intertextual analysis of MT 2, 13-15 for the purpose of creating a theology of the well known passage

Abstract

The aim of this short paper is to show the possibility of intertextual reading of the text in Mt 2,13-25 in the perspective of the presentation of harmonious biblical theology. Starting from the biblical text, the author using intertextual analysis tries to offer a solution to problems when reading the text in Mt 2, 13-15. The author harmoniously connects the intertextual analysis of the text with the possible historical implications of the same biblical text. All in order to show the genius of the author of Matthew’s Gospel, who used traditional materials in a harmonious way when writing his account of the life of the Son of God.
