Frank Moore Cross’s Contribution to the Study of the Dead Sea Scrolls Sidnie White Crawford This paper examines the impact of Frank Moore Cross on the study of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Since Cross was a member of the original editorial team responsible for publishing the Cave 4 materials, his influence on the field was vast. The article is limited to those areas of Scrolls study not covered in other articles; the reader is referred especially to the articles on palaeography and textual criticism for further discussion of Cross’s work on the Scrolls. t is difficult to overestimate the impact the discovery They icturedp two columns of a manuscript, columns of of the Dead Sea Scrolls had on the life and career of the Book of Isaiah .

  • The Biblical Texts from the Judean Desert—An Overview and Analysis
    CHAPTER TEN THE BIBLICAL TEXTS FROM THE JUDEAN DESERT—AN OVERVIEW AND ANALYSIS 1. Introduction and Statistics In many ways, the newly discovered texts have revolutionized the study of the text of Hebrew Scripture, as well as that of Greek Scripture. Many aspects of the transmission of the biblical text can now be illustrated by the Judean Desert texts, and occasionally this applies also to the last stages of the literary growth of the biblical books. In the scholarly jargon it may sound a little bombastic to speak of “revolutionizing” the field, but this term probably describes the finds from the Judean Desert correctly, especially the ones from Qumran. Some may claim that the texts found outside Qumran in Wadi Murabba‘at, Wadi Sdeir (Naha≥ l David), Naha≥ l He≥ ver, Naha≥ l Se≥ ’elim, and Masada are uninteresting, as they “merely” confirm the medieval MT, but these texts, too, are in many ways remarkable.1 The novel aspects relating to all these texts from the Judean Desert pertain not only to the new data, but also to a better understanding of the sources known prior to the Qumran finds.2 1 Information concerning the provenance of the biblical texts is usually rather stable. At the same time, 4QPsq may derive from Naha≥ l He≥ ver (see P. W. Skehan, E. Ulrich and P. W. Flint, DJD XVI, 145). The provenance of XLev, XJosh, XJudg, and XMinor Prophets as well as that of all the texts mentioned in n. 7 is equally unclear. 2 For my own summaries, see: “A Modern Textual Outlook Based on the Qumran Scrolls,” HUCA 53 (1982) 11–27; “Hebrew Biblical Manuscripts from the Judaean Desert: Their Contribution to Textual Criticism,” JJS 39 (1988) 1–37; “The Significance of the Texts from the Judean Desert for the History of the Text of the Hebrew Bible—A New Synthesis,” in Qumran between the Old and the New Testament (ed.

The work entitledA Guide to the Dead Sea Scrolls and Related Literature is the successor to Fitzmyer’s The Dead Sea Scrolls: Major Publications and Tools for Study (SBS 28; Scholars Press, 1975), which was revised and expanded in 1990. As Fitzmyer notes in the Preface to this work, the enormous amount of activity in the fields of DSS study since 1990, including the near completion of the Dis- coveries in the Judaean Desert series, necessitated not only an updated bibliogra- phy but also the reorganization of the text presentation according to the now widely accepted numbering system (e.g., 1Q20 instead of 1QapGen). This “guide” is a wonderfully helpful tool. Chapter I provides a quick, easy-to- use reference to the sometimes bewildering abbreviations used to refer to the scrolls. Chapter II begins with a general introduction to the DJD series, followed by a brief discussion of the series as well as references to various sources for full lists of the Scrolls, collections of photographs, and other valuable primary research tools.

  • Midrash and Pesher-Their Significance to T
    Midrash and Pesher: Their Significance to the Intertextuality Debate By Dan Fabricatore INTRODUCTION The discovery of the Qumran scrolls has shed much light as to how the scholars of the 1st century viewed the Old Testament Scriptures. In these scrolls we find hermeneutical techniques common to that day that some hold may have influenced the New Testament authors as they themselves used Old Testament passages for their own purposes. This presentation will attempt to look at concepts of midrash and pesher, their use in the New Testament, and their relevance to New Testament study today. TERMINOLOGY Trying to define midrash and pesher is akin to a maze. Just when you think you have a handle on the thing, you are afforded several new ways in which to go.1 Midrash The term midrash is a Hebrew noun (midrāš; pl. midrāšîm) derived from the verb dāraš which means “to search” (i.e. for an answer). Therefore midrash means “inquiry,” “examination” or “commentary.”2 Ezra 7:10 is the first use where a written text is the object of dāraš. 10 For Ezra had set his heart to study the law of the LORD, and to practice it, and to teach His statutes and ordinances in Israel. 10 T#o(jlaw; hwFhy: trawTo-t)e $wrod;li wbobFl; 4ykihe )rFz;(e yKi S .+PF$;miW qxo l)erF#;yiB; dMelal;W Midrash has a variety of meanings and uses in the Qumran literature. It is used to refer to “judicial investigation, study of the law, and interpretation.”3 However the main use at Qumran 1 This first presentation is somewhat purposely vague.

  • The End of an Era Frank Moore Cross (1921-2012)
    This article is reproduced by the Society of Biblical Literature with permission from Biblical Archaeology Review. The End of an Era Frank Moore Cross (1921-2012) Hershel Shanks • 10/18/2012 There will be a memorial service for Professor Cross in Memorial Church in Harvard Yard on Saturday, November 10th, at 4:00 p.m. We knew it would happen, but it’s still a shock. Frank Cross is dead. I will leave it to scholars to write of his scholarly accomplishments. I will only write of what I know: He stood at the very pinnacle of the profession, universally respected and admired. When he spoke, others stood in awe. The Hancock Professor of Hebrew and Other Oriental Languages at Harvard University, the third oldest endowed academic chair in the United States, Cross was a specialist in the Dead Sea Scrolls, in obscure ancient languages, in the science of dating ancient inscriptions based on the shape of the letters, in the Biblical text and in archaeology, to name but a few. I’ve been at this desk for almost 40 years and by now I can comfortably engage with senior colleagues. In the early years, however, I was a newcomer. I was a lawyer who had never taken a course in archaeology or even in the Bible. In those days, I divided scholars into two categories—those who welcomed novices like me and the other kind, who looked at me from their empyrean heights. Frank was clearly in the former group and I valued his friendship more than I can say.

  • Sadducees, Pharisees, and the Controversy of Counting the Omer by J.K
    Sadducees, Pharisees, and the Controversy of Counting the Omer by J.K. McKee posted 17 January, 2008 www.tnnonline.net The season between Passover and Unleavened Bread, and the Feast of Weeks or Shavuot, is one of the most difficult times for the Messianic community. While this is supposed to be a very special and sacred time, a great number of debates certainly rage over Passover. Some of the most obvious debates among Messianics occur over the differences between Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jewish halachah. Do we eat lamb or chicken during the sedar meal? What grains are “kosher for Passover”? Can egg matzos be eaten? What are we to have on our sedar plate? What traditions do we implement, and what traditions do we leave aside? And, what do we do with the uncircumcised in our midst? Over the past several years, I have increasingly found myself taking the minority position on a number of issues. Ironically, that minority position is usually the traditional view of mainline American, Ashkenazic Conservative and/or Reform Judaism—the same halachah that I was originally presented with when my family entered into Messianic Judaism in 1995. I have found myself usually thrust among those who follow a style halachah that often deviates from the mainstream. Certainly, I believe that our Heavenly Father does allow for creativity when it comes to human traditions. Tradition is intended to bind a religious and ethnic community together, giving it cohesion and a clear connection to the past. It is only natural for someone like myself, of Northern European ancestry, to more closely identify with a Northern and Central European style of Judaism, than one from the Mediterranean.

  • THE NINE COMMANDMENTS David Noel Freedman Description: The
    THE NINE COMMANDMENTS David Noel Freedman Description: The Primary History in the Hebrew Bible reveals a pattern of defiance of the Covenant with God that inexorably leads to the downfall of the nation of Israel, the destruction of the Temple, and the banishment of survivors from the Promised Land. Book by book, from Exodus to Kings, the violation of the first nine commandments are charted one by one. Because covetousness lies behind all the acts committed, each act implicitly breaks the Tenth Commandment as well. This hidden trail of sin betrays the hand of a master editor, who skillfully has woven into Israel’s history a message to a community in their Babylonian exile that their fate is not the result of God’s abandoning them, but a consequence of their abandonment of God. ____________________________________ David Noel Freedman, professor of History at Embedded in the sequence of books from Genesis through UCSD who holds the Endowed Chair in Kings is a hitherto unnoticed sequence of violations of the Hebrew Biblical Studies. Noel’s contributions to the study of the Bible and Ancient Near East Ten Commandments, one by one, book by book, by the are innumerable. His special areas of research community of Israel, leading, in the end, to her Exile. and expertise are Hebrew orthography, biblical poetry, and the editing, organization, and structure of the biblical corpus. At 79 I would like to suggest that this sequence of violations may years of age, Professor Freedman is still going reveal the hand of the final editor of this Primary History -- strong, serving as editor of the critically- Genesis through Kings -- and reinforces its overarching acclaimed Anchor Bible series and the new Eerdman’s Critical Commentary series.

As a scholar of the New Testament, I am often asked which books on the New Testament are the best ones to study. The question some- times baffles me because to answer such a question, I must first narrow the selection to a specific area of interest, understand the audience who will be reading the book, and know the purpose for which the book is being read. Reading for enjoyment, for example, is not always the same as reading to understand a subject. Moreover, when a person asks about the best books, does the adjective best imply the most important, the most influential, the most enjoyable, or the best of some other category? Another important facet of this discussion is a general feeling of skepticism that pervades our impressions of modern biblical scholarship and scholars.
