Document Details : Title: A New Reading of 4Q313 Author(s): RATZON, Eshbal Journal: Revue de Qumran Volume: 35 Issue: 1 Date: numéro 121, 2023 Pages: 3-16 DOI: 10.2143/RQ.35.1.3292113 Abstract : The present article proposes a new edition of the cryptic scroll 4Q313, based on the improved images at our disposal. The current readings do not support previous identification of this scroll as a copy of MMT. The very fragmented text might be related to a prayer for the healing of the misguided sinners. A paleographical analysis, based on the new reading, demonstrates that the handwriting of this scroll is very similar to that of 4Q298. This may imply that the two scrolls were penned by the same hand, but 4Q313 was written in a less formal script. |
