As the evidence shows, a classical text is one which even after untold centuries continues to inspire readers, causing some to get new ideas and some to compose yet another substantial volume of studies. Professor (emeritus) Ernst Baasland (Oslo and Stavanger, Norway) has brought to fruition his long-time interest in the Sermon on the Mount (SM, Matthew 5–7) by focusing on its use of parables and application of rhetoric. His sizable work comprises three major parts: the first, an introduction into the methodologies and terminologies employed; the second, a detailed reader’s report about the current state of research on the text; and the third, concluding re­marks about his findings and further interests. In addition, there are the customary bibliographical references and indices.
