This volume represents the culmination of the years of work that Dimant, and Strugnell before her, spent on these scrolls, and the results completely reinforce previous assessments that the text(s) contained in them are exciting and important ... she is to be congratulated on her fine edition of the fragments and her detailed articulation of her case for the compositional makeup of these scrolls. This volume lays an excellent foundation for the conversation that will certainly follow.

Dimant has provided the scholarly community with a thorough and exemplary publication of the fragments that should be the starting point for anyone desiring to work with these manuscripts.
