This research aims to study the Theory of Intertextuality, its adoption and the development of the term within the biblical research field, as well as its hermeneutical implications. It addresses several models and guidelines of intertextual approach, and discusses them in the light of hermeneutical assumptions related to a high view of Scripture. It aims to systematize a proposal of guidelines of intertextual approach for biblical exegesis and verify its applicability for biblical exegesis through the study of three passages: Revelation 20:7-21:8, Jeremiah 32:1-33:26 and Matthew 27:1-10.
