Reihe: Contributions to Biblical Exeg

Seventy years after their discovery, the Dead Sea Scrolls continue to

shed light on the Samaritan Pentateuch. The textual features,

orthography, script, variant readings and even theology of the Samaritan

Pentateuch have parallels in various manuscripts found in the Judaean

desert and copied during the Second Temple period. The fertile encounter

of Samaritan and Dead Sea Scrolls studies has yielded this exceptional

volume, featuring twelve contributions by some of the most respected

scholars gathered at the University of Strasbourg on May 26–27, 2016.

They cover such issues as scribal and editorial practices, political and

religious history, textual editions and versions, palaeography and

linguistics—with provocative studies challenging classical theories on

the origin of the Gerizim tenth commandment or the date of the earliest

Dead Sea Scrolls.
