"'This is an imaginative, careful, and impressive work. With its analyses of the process of rewriting in Greco-Roman, Jewish, and early Christian works it breaks new ground and has relevance for all of New Testament study. It greatly illumines how and why Matthew used Mark as a source, and as a starting point for his own distinctive portrait of Jesus.'
