Sourcebook of discovery and primary questions about the Scrolls A good collection of articles from the magazines which lobbied for the full publication of the Dead Sea Scrolls. (Scholars dragged their feet not out of any religious cabal but to carve out little exclusive professional fiefdoms for themselves and their favored students: anyone who wanted to examine these texts had petition them and thus they could set themselves up as arbiters and experts. Very professionally (and historically) selfish.) The scrolls have now been fully published in the Discoveries in the Judean Desert series, in microfilm, in at least 2 competing CD-ROM versions, and are fully represented in current translations. Anyone may read them and see there is nothing inimical to Christianity (unless you were is not aware that 'messiah' was a Jewish concept that came before Christianity...) Nearly all of the scrolls pre-date the lifetime of Jesus. They are not Christian but Jewish (although exactly what sort of Judaism is fiercely debated.) This collection of articles by prominent scholars and specialists follows some of the debates about the scrolls and their era. It is a popular book but archeologists and scholars turn to Shanks' magazines for the 'short versions' of their colleagues' works and discoveries. (For contrast, pick up a magazine like "Near Eastern Archaeology" which has the full, technical versions of similar work.) Although a bit of a time capsule, this book is a good introduction to the world of Dead Sea Scroll scholarship which dates to shortly after their full publication (1991, if memory serves.) -Kushana sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
