"Studies in Deuteronomy was compiled as a respectful tribute to
Professor C.J. Labuschagne and was presented to him on the occasion
of his 65th birthday. The choice of the book of Deuteronomy as a
fitting topic for a collection of commemorative essays reflects the
focus of Professor Labuschagne's own research on this part of the
Bible in recent years.
The essays, which employ a variety of methodological approaches to
the study of Deuteronomy, deal with such subjects as Masoretic,
Septuagintal and Qumran variations in the text of Deuteronomy,
Deuteronomic elements in other biblical books, and the reception
history of Deuteronomy in the Jewish and Christian worlds. Included
also is a first edition of some Deuteronomy manuscripts from
Qumran, Masada and Nahal Hever.
The present volume was compiled as a respectful tribute to A.S. van
der Woude and presented to him on the occasion of his 65th
birthday, which coincided with his retirement as professor of Old
Testament and Intertestamental Studies at the University of
Groningen, a chair he held for more than thirty years. The title of
this "Festschrift," "The Scriptures and the Scrolls," reflects the
two fields of study to which he has devoted his scholarly life, not
only by doing research himself, but also by stimulating many of his
colleagues to collaborate in publications initiated by him. The
contributions, a melange of studies covering the wide range of Van
der Woude's interests, have been arranged according to the order:

Sea Scrolls, and Rabbinic Tradition. From the Contents: E. Tov,
