Paradigmatische Erkundungen zu Non-Linearität, Varianz und Verdichtung in Num 25
Author:
Welche Charakteristika bestimmen die Textentstehung und Textüberlieferung der Literatur des Pentateuch? Schäfers argumentiert, dass in der Textgeschichte wie in der Literargeschichte qualitativ vergleichbare Phänomene zu beobachten sind: non-lineare Prozesse, eine variante Textualität sowie eine zunehmende Verdichtung von literarischer Bezügen und Sinndimensionen in der Traditionsgenese. Die exemplarische Untersuchung der Textüberlieferung des Numeribuches in MT, SP; LXX und 4QNumb arbeitet die paradigmatische Dimension dieser Neuperspektivierung heraus. Die detaillierte Untersuchung des notorisch schwierigen Kapitels Numeri 25 und seiner Forschungsgeschichte vertieft die methodischen Implikationen der Hypothese aus textkritischer, synchron-kompositioneller und literarkritischer Sicht. Which characteristics determine the production and transmission of texts in the literature of the Pentateuch? In this book, Schäfers argues that qualitatively comparable phenomena can be observed in both textual history and literary history: non-linear processes, a variant textuality, and an increasing condensation of literary references and dimensions of meaning in the genesis of tradition. The exemplary study of the textual transmission of the Book of Numbers in MT, SP; LXX and 4QNumb works out the paradigmatic dimension of this new approach. The detailed examination of the notoriously difficult chapter Numbers 25 and its research history deepens the methodological implications of the hypothesis from a text-critical, synchronic-compositional and literary-critical perspective.

Der Beitrag der Hiobhandschriften aus Qumran zur Text- und Literargeschichte des Hiobbuchs
Author:
The six manuscripts from Ḥirbet Qumran (2Q15, 4Q99, 4Q100, 4Q101, 4Q157, 11Q10) are the oldest textual witnesses of the Hebrew Book of Job, which received its final redaction during the 3rd century BCE. But their different characteristics and fragmentary condition make it hard to draw a picture on what these textual witnesses actually testify to. This study combines Text- and Literarkritik while considering their individual features. The results unveil a history of reception of the image of Job, which goes hand in hand with an ongoing production and reworking of the text.
In dieser Studie werden die sechs fragmentarischen Hiobmanuskripte aus Ḥirbet Qumran in text- und literarkritischen Einzelanalysen untersucht. Die Ergebnisse geben Einblick in die früheste Rezeptionsgeschichte und zeigen, welche Themen nach dem Abschluss der Großkomposition im 3. Jh. v. Chr. die weisheitliche Debatte um das Schicksal Hiobs prägten.

Intertextuality in 4Q185
Author:
This is the first published monograph on 4Q185 Sapiential Admonitions B, an enigmatic Dead Sea Scroll’s wisdom text. The author offers a new edition that is based on the IAA images and aided by the Göttingen Qumran-Digital database. In an intertextual analysis, she shows that the text of 4Q185 radically transforms the sapiential discourse manifested in Proverbs, by integrating both eschatological tropes and the discourse on memory and national identity reflected in Pss 78, 105 and 106. Before it was conserved in the manuscript, the text underwent literary growth: the section discussing Isa 40:6–8 proves to be a redactional insertion.

The Sixteenth Orion Symposium celebrated seventy years of Dead Sea Scrolls research under the theme, “Clear a path in the wilderness!” (Isaiah 40:3). Papers use the wilderness rubric to address the self-identification of the Qumran group; dimensions of religious experience reflected in the Dead Sea writings; biblical interpretation as shaper and conveyor of that experience; the significance of the Qumran texts for critical biblical scholarship; points of contact with the early Jesus movement; and new developments in understanding the archaeology of the Qumran caves. The volume both honors past insights and charts new paths for the future of Qumran studies.

Scapegoat Mechanisms Unveiled
Author:
What holds a society together, what makes it dissolve, and how is a society in crisis restored? These are the questions explored in this study, which brings the Serek ha-Yahad (IQS) into dialogue with mimetic theory. It thus aims to shed light on the forms of life and thought in the yahad, as well as on their underlying reason and purpose.
From the analysis emerges an image of a community that not only has a strong awareness of the mechanisms of violence, but also of its cure. Its hierarchical organization and strict regulations are motivated by a perceived dissolution of contemporary society. By subordinating personal desire to community discipline and by establishing a system of differentiation, the yahad seeks to provide a model of how a society ought to be functioning.

Liturgy, Ritual and Community
The powerful poetry of the Hebrew Psalms articulates a unique range of experience, even in translation. They explore the deepest concerns of individuals and communities. They are central to the performance of religion for both Jews and Christians. New discoveries, such as the famous Dead Sea Scrolls, have transformed our view of their role in Judaism, as has modern re-evaluation of the complicated relationship between Judaism and Christianity. Here a group of leading scholars sheds fresh light on the uses of the Psalms in post-biblical Jewish life in a multi-cultural world.
