Abstract
This article argues that the liturgical use of biblical texts should be included in an intertextual analysis. Rabbinic sources demonstrate a certain consensus on the liturgical reading cycles from the Torah and the Prophets in the early synagogue. Although the content of these cycles is not certain, external evidence disclose established connections between readings from the Torah and the Prophets (the haftarah-readings) in the first century CE. Paul’s letters display similar connections and a comparable hermeneutical strategy, as illustrated by a careful exegesis of Romans 15,9-12, Galatians 4,21-31, and 2 Corinthians 3.
