Inaugurating the new series, Critical Studies in the Hebrew Bible, A More Perfect Torah explores a series of test-cases in which the two methods mutually reinforce one another.The volume brings together two studies that investigate the relationship between the composition history of the biblical text and its reception history at Qumran and in rabbinic literature. The Temple Scroll is more than the blueprint for a more perfect Temple. It also represents the attempt to create a more perfect Torah. Its techniques for doing so are the focus of part 1, entitled ?Revelation Regained: The Hermeneutics of KI and ?IM in the Temple Scroll.? This study illuminates the techniques for marking conditional clauses in ancient Near Eastern literature, biblical law, and the Dead Sea Scrolls. It also draws new attention to the relationship between the Temple Scroll?s use of conditionals and the manuscript?s organized spacing system for marking paragraphs.Part 2 is entitled ?Reception History as a Window into Composition History: Deuteronomy?s Law of Vows as Reflected in Qoheleth and the Temple Scroll.? The law of vows in Deut 23:22?24 is difficult in both its syntax and its legal content. The difficulty is resolved once it is recognized that the law contains an interpolation that disrupts the original coherence of the law. The reception history of the law of vows in Numbers 20, Qoh 5:4?7, 11QTemple 53:11?14, and Sipre Deuteronomy confirms the hypothesis of an interpolation. Seen in this new light, the history of interpretation offers a window into the composition history of the biblical text. 410 0$aCritical Studies in the Hebrew Bible 606 $aVows (Jewish law) 606 $aRabbinical literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aJewish law$xInterpretation and construction 606 $aHebrew language$xSyntax 606 $aDead Sea scrolls 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aVows (Jewish law) 615 0$aRabbinical literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aJewish law$xInterpretation and construction. 615 0$aHebrew language$xSyntax. 615 0$aDead Sea scrolls. 676 $a222/.1506 700 $aLevinson$b Bernard M$0858638 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462378203321 996 $aA more perfect Torah$92485893 997 $aUNINA
