This volume brings the second set of five volumes to a close with an important volume on Paul and Scripture. This is one of the longest of the volumes that has appeared in the PAST series, and it provides a suitable publication of substance and sig- nificance to launch the next set of five volumes in the series. The nine previous volumes in the PAST series are: The Pauline Canon, ed. Stanley E. Porter (PAST 1; Leiden: Brill, 2004), Paul and His Opponents, ed. Stanley E. Porter (PAST 2; Leiden: Brill, 2005), Paul and His Theology, ed. Stanley E. Porter (PAST 3; Leiden: Brill, 2006), Paul’s World, ed. Stanley E. Porter (PAST 4; Leiden: Brill, 2008), Paul: Jew, Greek, and Roman, ed. Stanley E. Porter (PAST 5; Leiden: Brill, 2008), Paul and the Ancient Letter Form, ed. Stanley E. Porter and Sean A. Adams (PAST 6; Leiden: Brill, 2010), Paul and His Social Relations, ed. Stanley E. Porter and Christopher D. Land (PAST 7; Leiden: Brill, 2012), Paul and Pseudepigraphy, ed. Stanley E. Porter and Gregory P. Fewster (PAST 8; Leiden: Brill, 2013), and Paul and Gnosis, ed. Stanley E. Porter and David I. Yoon (PAST 9; Leiden: Brill, 2016). As I have stated previously, and is no less true than before, this series continues to grow, and the number of different contributors to these volumes continues to grow as well. I would again like to welcome any previous contributors and invite any new contributors to offer essays to any and all of the next set of five volumes that have now moved into development. They are listed below. I would also like to express my thanks to those who have found these volumes helpful. I thank those who have made use of the first nine volumes (and let me know about it), those who have given such favourable and encouraging reviews to these volumes, and those who are continuing to use these volumes to aid in their own research, writing, and teaching. Like its predecessors, this volume brings together a number of different papers by scholars engaged in discussion of the topic of Paul and his use of Scripture. I was confident when we agreed to conclude this set of volumes with this topic that we would se- cure a healthy number of significant contributions, and I have not been disap- pointed. We have received another set of papers that fulfill the expectations of
