Description
Summary:This volume is aimed at students and offers a concise, up-to-date and comprehensive introduction to the Dead Sea Scrolls. Of particular value is that the authors aim to take the writings, as much as possible, at their face value without superimposing a meta-thesis on them regarding the community of Qumran and the coherence of the various writings or otherwise (without denying the legitimacy and necessity of such a comprehensive thesis). This approach allows the authors and readers not only to see and describe the unity of the material but also to appreciate the full force of its diversity.
