Pajunen, Mika S.
The Land to the Elect and Justice for All

Reading Psalms in the Dead Sea Scrolls in Light of 4Q381.

4Q381 gives evidence of a perception of psalms as sources of history that is in the end found to be a much broader phenomenon. Mika S. Pajunen contributes to the understanding of manuscript 4Q381 from the Dead Sea Scrolls and to broader issues related to the reconstruction of damaged scrolls and to the reading of psalms in late Second Temple Judaism. The author focuses especially on the collection of "apocryphal" psalms in 4Q381 and other similar psalm collections, but it is also of interest to the ongoing search for the functions of psalmody in this period. This study incorporated a thorough analysis of the reconstruction of manuscript 4Q381. 420 Seiten mit 12 Abb., gebunden (Journal of Ancient Judaism.
