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.
