The Dead Sea Scrolls, found in caves near the Dead Sea fifteen miles east of Jerusalem from 1947 to 1956, include the oldest existing biblical manuscripts and the remarkable texts of the purist Jewish community at Qumran. The discovery of the scrolls has added dramatically to our understanding of the varieties of Judaism at the time of Jesus and the rise of Christianity, but has also prompted heated debate about the nature of these religions. As the monumental task of transcribing and translating the Dead Sea Scrolls is finally completed, people around the world are taking stock of the significance of these ancient documents. In this book, two of the world's leading experts on the scrolls reveal the complete and fascinating story in all its detail: the amazing discovery, the intense controversies, and the significant revelations. Drawing together all the evidence, this timely book explores: The discovery and dating of the scrolls Their relationship to the Hebrew Bible, Apocrypha, and New Testament Their messianic and apocalyptic messages The identity, nature, and theology of the Qumran community The nonbiblical scrolls Controversies surrounding the scrolls This comprehensive, up-to-date guide is the definitive introduction to all aspects of the scrolls, including their teachings, the community that created them, the world of Judaism, the origins of Christianity, our understanding of Jesus and the New Testament. Featuring photos of the original texts, the sites, and the scholars who deciphered them, and including illustrative passages from the scrolls, The Meaning of the Dead Sea Scrolls presents the most complete and accurate scholarship on the Dead Sea Scrolls available today.… (altro)

EL SIGNIFICADO DE LOS ROLLOS DEL MAR MUERTO.

Desde su descubrimiento y primera publicación a comienzos de los años cincuenta
del siglo pasado, los rollos del Mar Muerto han constituido un preciado objeto de
estudio e indagación que, en más de una ocasión, ha trascendido del ámbito
académico para convertirse en foco de atención de un público amplio. La investigación
en torno a los rollos ha supuesto importantes revelaciones sobre las variedades
del judaísmo en tiempos de Jesùs así como sobre el surgimiento del cristianismo
promoviendo también un acalorado debate sobre estos temas.

La necesidad de una nueva introducción a los rollos -que tuviera en cuenta
todos esios textos como biblioteco y que incorporara las discusiones científicas
y los avances tecnológicos más recientes se ha ido haciendo paulatinamente
patente. El significado de los rollos del Mar Muerio responde a este propósito.
Analiza 350 tcxtos qumránicos y describe las sociedades y culturas en que fucron
compuestos, incorporando fotogra fias de los textos originales y de los lugares en
que fueron hallados, además de numerosas tablas en que se recogen pasajes
ilustrativos de los rollos, cronologías y otros datos de interés.

James VanderKam es profesor en el Departamento de Teología de la Universidad
de Notre Dame. Sus investigaciones se han centrado en la historia y la literatura
temprana del judaismo y de las Escrituras hebreas. Es miembro del comité editorial
que publica los rollos del Mar Muerio y uno de los editores de la Enciclopedia
de los rollos del Mar Muerto (2000). Además de Las rollos del Mar Muerto hoy
(1994), entre sus libros más recientes se cuentan Introducción al judaismo tem-
prano (2001), El Libro de los Jubileas (2001) y De Jostué a Caifis (2004).

Peter Flini es co-director del Dead Sea Scrolls Institute de la Trinity Western
University. Autor de Salmas de los rollos del Mar Muerto y Libro de los Sal-
mos (1997), es editor de El Libro de los Salmos: composición y recepción (2003)
y co-editor de la Biblia de los rollos del Mar Muerto (1999)
Ilustración de cubierta: fragmento del manuscrito Qumrán 40325.

NO OF PAGES: 467 SUB CAT I: Dead Sea Scrolls SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: This sweeping and up-to-the-minute introduction to the Dead Sea Scrolls includes many recent developments in Scrolls research, bringing readers current information on new DNA dating techniques, discoveries in linguistics, and archaeological findings. VanderKam (The Dead Sea Scrolls Today) and Flint (The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible) are clearly experts in their field, familiar with all the major (and minor) issues at stake. At times, they become submerged in questions that only other specialists will care about, or render unnecessarily detailed information on particular points (for example, providing a paragraph on each of the major photographers who have worked with the Scrolls, or debating the intricacies of Paleo-Hebrew). Despite these forays into arcana, the authors usually manage to keep their prose free of scholarly jargon. Moreover, the accessible design is first-rate, with helpful sidebars and information boxes to aid the reader. VanderKam and Flint pay special attention to the Scrolls' relationship with biblical and apocryphal literature, offering nuanced discussions of the formation of the biblical canon and the development of various lines of scribal transmission. One section deals with the non-biblical Scrolls and attempts to reveal more about the Qumran community, with VanderKam and Flint coming down heavily in favor of Essene authorship of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Overall, this is a superb introduction to all of the major points, though novice readers may wish to skim the more concentrated academic debates.
