Summary:
This edition presents for the first time all the non-biblical Qumran texts classified according to their genres, together with English translations. Of these texts, some twenty were not previously published. The Hebrew-Aramaic texts in this edition are mainly based on the FARMS database of Brigham Young University, which, in its turn, reflects the text editions of the ancient scrolls (mainly DJD) with great precision, including modern diacritical signs. The Reader consists of six individual parts. The purpose of the classification is to enhance the research facilities of the individual texts within their respective genres, especially in courses at Universities and Colleges.
Contents:
pt. 1. Texts concerned with religious law
pt. 2. Exegetical texts
pt. 3. Parabiblical texts
pt. 4. Calendrical texts
pt. 5. Poetic and liturgical texts
pt. 6. Additional genres and unclassified texts.
