Sidnie Crawford, Rewriting Scripture in Second Temple Times, (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 2008), esp. 327-32, argues for a continuum of transmission with one end of the spectrum occupied by word-for-word copying, and the other end occupied by commentaries. See also George Brooke, “The Rewritten Law, Prophets, and Psalms: Issues for Understanding the Text of the Bible,” in The Bible as Book: The Hebrew Bible and the Judean Desert Discoveries (ed. Edward Herbert and Emanuel Tov; London: British Library, 2002), 31-40; James VanderKam, “Questions of Canon Viewed Through the Dead Sea Scrolls,” bbr 11 (2001): 269-92, esp. 280, 292, also presents these texts as existing on a continuum. See, however, the critical remarks of Zahn, Rethinking, 239-41.

Tessa Rajak, Translation and Survival: The Greek Bible of the Ancient Jewish Diaspora (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2009), 19 notes: “Thus, an even more intricate task within the domain of textual criticism is the exploitation of the Greek as a route to our understanding of the development of the Hebrew text. The Qumran material has of course transformed what was once a desultory activity into an all-absorbing investigation.” Ulrich, Dead Sea Scrolls, 225, adds: “Some of the texts that show [pluriformity in the text tradition], principally the Samaritan Pentateuch (sp) and the Old Greek (og), lay within easy reach of scholars through the centuries but were not generally understood in this context. However, the scrolls from Qumran and other sites along the Dead Sea paint the picture with exciting clarity.”
