Drawnel (ed.), Sacred Texts and Disparate Interpretations

NEW BOOK FROM BRILL:
Sacred Texts and Disparate Interpretations: Qumran Manuscripts Seventy Years Later

Proceedings of the International Conference Held at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, 24–26 October 2017


Series: Studies on the Texts of the Desert of Judah, Volume: 133

Editor: Henryk Drawnel

The essays in Sacred Texts and Disparate Interpretations cover an array of core themes from various areas of Qumran studies, including textual criticism of the Hebrew Bible, Second Temple history, philology, paleography, Wisdom and religious poetry.
Contributors to this volume generally consider these themes from a historical perspective, trying to find new solutions to old questions and entering in constructive dialogue with the opinions of other scholars. Paleographic investigations, textual criticism as well as literary and philological approaches make this volume a valuable contribution to the variegated and often highly specialized directions of inquiry into the contents and historical background of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
