This article is a recapitulation of the history of research in Denmark on the Dead Sea Scrolls since their discovery. Before 1947, some authors had already treated subjects like the history of the Essenes and the Cairo Damascus Document. When news of the manuscript findings near Qumran reached the scholarly world and the Cave 1 manuscripts became known, Danish scholars showed great interest in the material, while at the same time proceeding with caution in the light of the uncertainty of the historical background of the scrolls. The available texts were translated into Danish and several studies as well as popular books were written. After a partial standstill during the 1960s and 1970s, the publication of the manuscript material especially from Cave 4 prompted an array of new investigations into the ancient Jewish worlds reflected in the scrolls. In recent years Dead Sea Scrolls scholars in Denmark, like their international colleagues, have renewed and expanded their methodological toolbox.

This article argues – on the occasion of Collegium Biblicum’s 75 anniversary – that qurʾānic studies belong to an important and longstanding scholarly object of investigation in biblical studies – in the past, present, and future. The article sets out with three sections. The first outlines a striking resemblance between the qurʾānic and the biblical universes. The second exemplifies how the Qurʾān stages itself in dialogue with the biblical tradition. The third sketches some characteristic Christian responses to the Qurʾān. The article then proceeds to outline how Danish university theology from early on engaged with the Qurʾān and its language, Arabic. The penultimate section summarizes state-of-affairs since year 2000 and the last section points to current trends and future scenarios and hopes.

In 2016 the Danish bishops initiated an “historical experiment”, viz. the so-called liturgical debate in the Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church of the years 2017-2021. The aim of the debate was to involve theological scholars, pastors and lay people in the discussion of the liturgical texts that regulate the celebration of the Sunday service and the sacraments. This historical experiment re-opened classical questions regarding the right to initiate liturgical reforms and regulate liturgical rules in the Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church. It also re-opened the question of authority in the Church. This article outlines the most important historical discussions and developments from the Church Ritual (Kirkeritualet) of 1537/39 until the present day in order to shed light on how and by whom liturgical reforms were and still are initiated and executed in Denmark. A special focus is put on the interaction between state, church and people.
