Myers, Elizabeth A. Intertextual Borrowing between 1 Peter and Hebrews: Probability of Literary Dependence and the Most Likely Direction of Borrowing. Cody, WY: Pistos Ktistes Publishing LLC, 2020. Description Through the rigorous application of an assessment methodology which applies probability theory to specific features of the parallel texts, Intertextual Borrowing between 1 Peter and Hebrews demonstrates that literary dependence between 1 Peter and Hebrews is highly probable and that the author of Hebrews is far more likely to be the borrower of parallel material. Thus the author of Hebrews very likely knew and used 1 Peter while crafting the epistle to the Hebrews. The book includes a brief survey of the history of scholarly opinion regarding the literary relationship between Hebrews and 1 Peter, identification of a comprehensive list of literary parallels that satisfy pre-defined criteria for inclusion in the analysis, the procedure for applying the methodology, and step-by-step execution of the probability calculation for each successive parallel. The book includes 63 figures, 41 tables, appendices with supporting data, an extensive index of Scripture and other ancient sources, and an index of modern authors. Publisher:
