The story of the discovery of the Temple Scroll, frequently retold, is a gripping tale. It mixes archaeology with espionage, and even military victory. In that sense, it is unique. However, in other ways, it participates in conventions of discovery narratives nearly as old as writing itself. Like ancient find accounts, it establishes a provenance for the manuscript, details the labor involved in making the discovery available, and seeks to raise interest in the contents of the scroll. This all functions as a means of elevating the value of the text. This article argues that the narrative of the Temple Scroll’s discovery also performs another important function: it re-creates the scroll as a text ripe for scholarly analysis. In so doing, the narrative erases and/or diminishes the acts of translation and mediation necessary to accomplish this transformation from material to textual object.

In the present article, I argue that a passage from the Damascus Document (CD 4:12–16 + 5:15–19) and an opaque saying attributed to Jesus (Luke 11:20) mutually illuminate each other. The starting point of both is the conception that a conflict between God and the evil power(s) took place before the Exodus. An analogy is drawn between this period and the present liminal period considered as the beginning of the eschatological period prior to the eschaton. The expectations for healing and resurrection in the eschaton in 4Q521 2 ii 8, 11–12 shed light on Matt 11:3 // Luke 7:19. When viewed through the lens of the conception that the eschatological period has already commenced, these expectations were transformed to Jesus’s activity in the present.
在本文中,我认为大马士革文件中的一段话(CD 4:12-16+5:15-19)和耶稣的一句不透明的话(路加福音11:20)相互启发。两者的出发点都是上帝和邪恶力量之间的冲突发生在出埃及记之前。这一时期与被认为是末世之前末世时期开始的当前临界时期之间有一个类比。在4 Q521 2 ii 8,11–12的末世中对治愈和复活的期望揭示了马太福音11:3//Luke 7:19。当从末世时期已经开始的概念的角度来看时,这些期望转化为耶稣在当下的活动。

The analysis of the uses of the passive participle כתוב in the halakhic section of MMT shows that the כתוב formula introduces keywords rather than summative quotations. By quoting keywords, the authors of MMT enable their addressee to easily identify a passage from Scripture. The way in which the scriptural passage is quoted suggests that the words introduced by the formula have been selected so that they are appropriate for only one passage, and that the addressee knows perfectly well to which passage the author refers. The selection of keywords does not allow us to note any exegetical act in it; it is only about quoting a text, which in itself is an argument in the polemic.
