This volume, the latest in this pathbreaking series, contains a collection of compositions from Cave 4 at Qumran, written during the Second Temple Period and linked to the Hebrew Bible through text, characters, themes, or genre. Some were completely unknown before their discovery here. The documents greatly enhance our understanding of biblical interpretation at this period.

The editors and the publisher are to be commended for a job well done."--Bibliotheca Sacra
