Produktbeschreibung
'biblical' scrolls, which is essential if we hope to settle this debate.
This volume fills some of that void by providing a broad linguistic analysis of all the 'biblical' Dead Sea Scrolls. Over forty different features are discussed through a comparison between the 'biblical' scrolls and the other major witnesses to the Hebrew Bible. It begins with a global analysis of all the 'biblical' scrolls, focusing on a comparison between the plene and defective manuscripts. Through that analysis, this study concludes that there are very few linguistic modernizations found
in the 'biblical' scrolls. In order to verify this conclusion, five individual scrolls are analysed. Finally, it closes by providing a qualitative analysis of the 'biblical' scrolls and shows their linguistic character to be most consistent with a scribal culture of linguistic stability and textual
authority.
