Abstract: "For the biblical scholar, chap. 4 of this comprehensive study on a ""Church father honoris causa"" is most important: ""Philo and the NT"" (63-86). Runia demonstrates that NT writings and Philo share a common backround but that there is no evidence of a direct influence of Philo on Paul, Hebrews, and the Fourth Gospel. The Philonic connections of Col 1,15-18 and Gal 4,21-31 are singled out for special consideration."
