Utilizing an independent approach to the relevant documents from Qumran, this study discusses the primary and secondary literature on the five major categories of impurity in the scrolls (i.e., diseases, clean/unclean animals, corpses, bodily discharges, and sexual misdeeds). This examination is supported by a comparison between the scrolls? purity legislations and their biblical counterparts. The book culminates with a comparison between the purity rulings in the scrolls and a diachronic reading of the explicit agreements and disagreements found therein. The result is a far more comprehensive and nuanced interpretation than has been previously offered. 410 0$aStudies on the texts of the desert of Judah ;$vv. 72. 606 $aPurity, Ritual$xJudaism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPurity, Ritual$xJudaism. 676 $a296.7/42 700 $aWerrett$b Ian C$0896325 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453278203321 996 $aRitual purity and the Dead Sea scrolls$92002472 997 $aUNINA
