In his time, the canon of Christian writings today known as the New Testament emerged as a counterpart to 'Scripture' (the Law and Prophets of the Hebrew Bible). The chapter in the collective monograph Process of authority deals with the reception of the Hebrew Bible, as reflected in Justin's work, in particular in his Dialogue with Trypho the Jew. Justin uses many quotations from Scripture, which are interpreted as prophecies fulfilled in Christ. As a correlate to the individual verses of the Scripture and source of information on Jesus'life and suffering, he refers in this work 13 times to the 'Memoirs of the apostles'.
