Much recent scholarship on Paul has searched for implicit narratives behind PaulтАЩs scriptural allusions, especially in the wake of Richard B. HaysтАЩs groundbreaking work on the apostleтАЩs appropriation of Scripture. A. Andrew Das reviews six proposals for тАЬgrand thematic narrativesтАЭ behind the logic of GalatiansтАФpotentially, six explanations for the fabric of PaulтАЩs theology: the covenant (N. T. Wright); the influx of nations to Zion (Terence Donaldson); IsaacтАЩs near sacrifice (Scott Hahn, Alan Segal); the Spirit as cloud in the wilderness (William Wilder); the Exodus (James Scott, Sylvia Keesmaat); and the imperial cult (Bruce Winter et al.). Das weighs each of these proposals exegetically and finds them wantingтАФmore examples of what Samuel Sandmel famously labeled тАЬparallelomaniaтАЭ than of sound exegetical method. He turns at last to reflect on the risks of (admittedly alluring) totalizing methods and lifts up a seventh proposal with greater claim to evidence in the text of Galatians: PaulтАЩs allusions to IsaiahтАЩs servant passages.
