Discoveries in the Judaean Desert: Volume XXIII. Qumran Cave 11

by Florentino Garcia Martinez, E J C Tigchelaar, and A S Van Der Woude

Published 30 April 1998

Cave 11 at Qumran contained a number of very important and well-preserved manuscripts such as the Temple Scroll and the Palaeo-Leviticus Scroll. The large size of those scrolls necessitated their publication as individual volumes. This volume contains complete editions of the remainder of the Cave 11 manuscripts which include biblical scrolls such as Ezekiel and Psalms, and a collection of important extra-biblical texts such as Jubilees (know previously from the
Pseudepigrapha), Berakoth and Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice (both of which were also preserved in copies from Cave 4), Melchizedek and Hymns. In addition the volume also includes a new edition of the Targum of Job.

Composed at the end of the editorial process, this volume provides a general overview of and introduction to the thirty-eight volumes of the Discoveries in the Judaean Desert series published from 1951 onwards by Oxford University Press. It contains a general description of the series and its editorial principles, as well as different indexes: several lists of the texts found in the Judaean desert, a list of scribal notations, annotated lists of internal overlaps and
parallels, the texts found in the Judaean desert arranged by their presumed dates, and a concordance of the proper names.
