In "The Dead Sea Scrolls Uncovered" by Robert Eisenman
and Michael Wise I am unsure of their translation.

In 4Q320 fragment 1 column 3 line 4 it
says "the 5th of Hakkoz, the 29th, 20th of the 1st month"
should it be "the 6th of Hakkoz, the 29th, 10th of the 1st month"

In 4Q321 fragment 1 column 1 line 2 it says "..3rd Mijamin, on the 17th
of it" should it be "3rd of Majamin, on the 12th".

In 4Q321 fragment 1 column 2 line 3 it says "..the 5th of Seorim,
on the 3rd of it" should it be "on the 2nd of it."

In 4Q321 fragment 1 column 2 line 6 it says "..the 4h of Jachin
on the 19th of it" should it be "on the 29th of it."

In 4Q321 fragment 1 column 3 line 6 it says "..the 1st of Maaziah,
on the 16th of it" should it be "on the 19th of it."

In 4Q321 fragment 1 column 3 line 7/8 it says "on the 6th of Jakim
on the 17th of the 1st month .. on the sabbath of Pethahiah on the 30th
of the 2nd month" yet in between these should be on the 5th of Jeshebeab
on the 30th and on the 1st of Hezir on the 17th?

In 4Q321 fragment 2 column 1 line 3/4 it says "..the 5th of Harim,
on the 16th of it" should it be "on the 21st of it."

I would like to know if this is an error in translation / printing or in the
original text.
