This title demonstrates that the Qumran document "The Rule of the
Community", provides linguistic clues which illuminate our
understanding of the "Fourth Gospel". This work sets out to
demonstrate that the sectarian Qumran document "The Rule of the
Community", provides linguistic clues which illuminate our
understanding of how the author of the "Fourth Gospel" used truth
terminology and expected it to be understood. It establishes that
there are significant linguistic similarities shared by these two
corpora. While these may be attributed to a development of the
common tradition shared by both, as well as the influence ideology,
the semantic continuity with the Rule of the Community makes it
likely that the author of the "Fourth Gospel" was familiar with the
mode of thought represented in the linguistic matrix of the Qumran
literature and that he followed this in articulating his ideas in
certain parts of his Gospel. This series focuses on early Jewish
and Christian texts and their formative contexts; it also includes
sourcebooks that help clarify the ancient world.
