Old Testament greeting in Shakespeare play (7)
I believe the answer is:
othello
'shakespeare play' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'old testament greeting' is the wordplay.
'old testament' becomes 'ot'.
'greeting' becomes 'hello' (hello is a kind of greeting).
'ot'+'hello'='OTHELLO'
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for othello that I've seen before include "jealous husband" , "Literary character" , "Shakespeare tragedy" , "Desdemona's husband" , "player from Stratford" .)
