Among the most prominent hallmarks of the late Prof. Hanan Eshel
(19582010) were his generosity, passion, and integrative approach.
The eighteen essays in this volume were selected by Prof. Eshel
shortly before his untimely death, to be printed as a collection
aimed at contextualizing the textual finds of the Dead Sea Scrolls
within their archaeological settings and within the contours of
contemporary scholarship.The Qumran texts that stand at the center
of these articles are correlated with archaeological and geographic
information and with a variety of textual sources including
epigraphic evidence and, especially, the Hebrew Bible, Josephus,
and rabbinic texts. The essays are organized according to the
provenance of the discovered material, with sections devoted to the
Damascus Documentand the scrolls from Caves 1, 3, 4, and 11, as
well as a final more general chapter.Half of the essays have been
previously published in English, while the other half have been
translated from Hebrew here for the first time. The book includes
essays that have been co-authored with Esther Eshel, Shlomit
Kendi-Harel, Zeev Safrai, and John Strugnell.
