520 Dodson reads the dreams in the Gospel of Matthew (1:18b-
25; 2:12, 13-15, 19-21, 22; 27:19) as the authorial
audience. This approach requires an understanding of the
social and literary character of dreams in the Greco-Roman
world. Dodson describes the social function of dreams,
noting that dreams constituted one form of divination in
the ancient world, and looks at the theories and
classification of dreams that developed in the ancient
world. He then moves on to demonstrate the literary
dimensions of dreams in Greco-Roman literature. This
exploration of the literary representation of dreams is
nuanced by considering the literary form of dreams, dreams
in the Greco-Roman rhetorical tradition, the inventiveness
of literary dreams, and the literary function of dreams.
The dreams in the Gospel of Matthew are then analyzed in
this social and literary context. It is demonstrated that
Matthew's use of dreams as a literary convention
corresponds to the script of dreams in other Greco-Roman
narratives. This correspondence includes the form of the
Matthean dreams, dreams as a motif of the birth topos (1:
18b-25), the association of dreams and prophecy (1:22-23;
2:15, 23), the use of the double-dream report (2:12 and 2:
13-15), and dreams as an ominous sign in relation to an
individual's death (27:19). An appendix considers the
Matthean transfiguration as a dream-vision report.
