The Earliest Commentary on the Prophecy of Habakkuk, by Timothy H. Lim
Esoteric wisdom texts from Qumran
The dominant approach to sapiential compositions found in the caves at and near Qumran has been based on traditional views of the wisdom books of the Hebrew Bible. The intention here is to look rather at the likely contexts of the transmission of the sapiential literature in the movement that preserved the Scrolls. In so doing, particular attention is given to esoteric writings. The first part of the paper outlines three key factors that indicate…
On Prophets, Warriors, and Kings
While recent decades have seen a plethora of studies exploring the complex processes that shaped biblical books traditionally designated as Prophets, much remains to be done in order to uncover the rich history of their interpretation throughout the ages. This collection of essays aims at filling this gap by exploring different aspects of the exegesis of the Former and Latter Prophets in contexts both ancient and modern, Jewish and Christian. Fro…
Genesis 1-11 in the Light of Some Aspects of the Transmission of Genesis in Late Second Temple Times
This article outlines some of the evidence for the copying and reading of Genesis in manuscripts found in the caves at and near Qumran. It suggests that some Second Temple Jews did indeed read Genesis as a whole, as in the book of Jubilees, some seem to have concentrated on reading Genesis only from Enoch and Noah onwards (e.g., Genesis Apocryphon; Commentary on Genesis A), and yet others had an interest in the opening chapters of Genesis either …
The signifcance of Sinai
This collection of studies is particularly useful in showing something of the complexity of how scriptural traditions remain authoritative and lively for those who appeal to them in subsequent generations in very different contexts
Pesharim and Related Documents
The Dead Sea Scrolls represent the remains of an ancient Jewish library which antedates 68 C.E. It is the most significant discovery of biblically related ancient manuscripts, and represents more than 600 ancient Jewish documents. The series presents an introduction, critical text, and literal English translation of all the Dead Sea Scrolls which are not copies of books in the Hebrew Bible. It is the definitive collection of the Dead Sea Scrolls.…
Qumran Cave 4, VIII
Ugarit and the Bible
Angels at Qumran
A comprehensive study of the perspectives on angels of Qumran sectarian authors and of the authors of those sections of 1 (Ethiopic) Enoch represented in the Qumran library. Marked differences emerge as the roles of angels are considered in relation to various topics. These include beliefs about how the sun entered the world, events at the close of the present age, the means by which divine revelation is communicated to God's people and the ways …
A Further Fragment of 1QSb
Le fragment 1QSb provient de la cave numero un de Qumran. Il s'agit d'un fragment tres modeste qui ne peut permettre de resoudre l'ensemble des difficultes qui se posent a la reconstruction de l'ensemble du manuscrit. Cependant, ce fragment additionnel montre que les sections individuelles de 1QSb sont fortement structurees. 1QSb contient de nombreuses benedictions qu'il est necessaire d'elucider. Sur la base de cette reconstruction, il s'agit de…
