The list just shows at first the obsolete intention to engraft Chirbet Q. on the scroll corpus. Though even Roehrer-Ertl is missed as well as Zias, Zangenberg or Rohrhirsch, to mention only a few. IMO that sounds weak - utmost weak in 2007. And btw, I guess if Magness really wants to claim the philosophy of the Yachad (or the members) as "her roots" without seeing the tree for the wood.

The list of scholars involved is quite impressive

save for Baigent, who is hardly a scholar.

Hi,
Here's an online article, perhaps one to note for g-megillot and/or orion "in the news." It's from December 2006; the title at the newsletter link, "Decoding the Dead Sea Scrolls," is the same as that of a National Geographic show next Sunday, coincidentally or not. Much of it is semi-old news, but it would be nice to have a list of which texts are on goat and calf skin, to compare or contrast with those on gazelle and ibex skin.

best,
