Publisher's Synopsis

Cave 11 at Qumran contained a number of very important and well-preserved manuscripts such as the Temple Scroll and the Palaeo-Leviticus Scroll. The large size of those scrolls necessitated their publication as individual volumes. This volume contains complete editions of the remainder of the Cave 11 manuscripts which include biblical scrolls such as Ezekiel and Psalms, and a collection of important extra-biblical texts such as Jubilees (know previously from the Pseudepigrapha), Berakoth and Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice (both of which were also preserved in copies from Cave 4), Melchizedek and Hymns. In addition the volume also includes a new edition of the Targum of Job.
