Methods of Investigation of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Khirbet Qumran Site: Present Realities and Future Prospects (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences)

By Norman Golb

Book Overview

This volume brings together leading scholars of the Dead Sea Scrolls, ancient Judaism, and the archaeology and history of Syria-Palestine during the Graeco-Roman period. It is unusual in that it emphasises evaluation of methodologies used in research on the scrolls and at the site. Methodologies are considered under four rubrics: textual interconnections (including reports on unpublished scroll materials), scribal and linguistic problems, archaeology, and historiography.
