'''''Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament''''' was edited by [[G. K. Beale]] and [[D. A. Carson]], and published by [[Baker Books]] in 2007.
It is a comprehensive [[Bible commentary]] on [[Old Testament]] references within the [[New Testament]]. The editors headed a team of scholars to identify, explain and comment on both the direct quotations within the text of the New Testament and its many other probable allusions to the Old.
In a 2008 interview, Beale explained that the writers [[Eclecticism|eclectically]] extended the [[historical-grammatical method]] of exegesis, seeking a "biblical-theological perspective that really goes beyond the traditional understanding of grammatical-historical."<ref>{{cite news|title=Two Testaments, One Story|url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2008/februaryweb-only/106-52.0.html?paging=off|accessdate=June 25, 2012|newspaper=Christianity Today|date=February 8, 2008|author=Collin Hansen}}</ref>
