Canadian Scholarship on the Dead Sea SCrolls

This volume celebrates the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, their contents, the movement that produced many of them, the community that preserved them all, and new questions and scientific issues that arise from Scrolls studies. The twenty-five essays, in four sections, explore the origins and text of scripture, the interpretation of scripture in Second Temple Judaism, the identity and practices of the movement associated with Qumran and the Scrolls, and the extensive contributions of Canadian projects and scholarship. Eight color plates are included in the volume. The contributors are Martin G. Abegg, Jr., Kyung S. Baek, Éric Bellavance, Francis Daoust, Robert David, C. J. Patrick Davis, Marie-France Dion, Lorenzo DiTommaso, Jean Duhaime, Jaqueline S. du Toit, Ted M. Erho, Craig A. Evans, Daniel K. Falk, Peter W. Flint, Manuel Jinbachian, Jason Kalmon, Steve Mason, Wayne McCready, Hindy Najman, Benjamin H. Parker, Andrew B. Perrin, Dorothy M. Peters, Eileen Schuller, Ian W. Scott, Chad Martin Stauber, Emanuel Tov, Eugene Ulrich, and Cecilia Wassen.
