This review is of the Kindle version. I use the Kindle app on my iPad which gives me access to a much larger corpus of digital books than that offered by Apple. I got this book because I'm using the google Dead Sea Scrolls program to work out my own translations and I wanted a good English translation to reference. I'm very pleased with this edition. The translations flow nicely, and they are academically trustworthy. The book begins with a helpful introduction of various aspects of the history, compilation, and meaning of the DSS. The translations themselves follow the actual scrolls and are numbered according to the column and the line on the scrolls. This digital version is a valuable resource, and I'm quite happy with it. It's worth your money and your time.
Never realized "the Qumran" was recovered so incompletely! Author did a great job of filling in some of the blanks! Thanx!
These comprehensive translations are of the non-Biblical texts found from the caves at Qumran, and are useful for anyone interested primarily in the *content* of the scrolls. The hebrew texts are not given in this work (those interested in such should search under title = "Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition", published both by Brill/Eerdmans), and the Biblical texts are not given (bibliographies are given for these texts-- most often the Oxford series *Discoveries in the Judaean Desert* is the primary source for Biblical texts).Serious students of Qumran literature will need more than this work, of course, given that some of the renderings given in the book are disputed (debate over the particulars of any given text can be consulted in academic journals and monographs). The book is a solid compilation of translations of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
If you want to know the story and the data in the Dead Sea Scrolls this is the book for you. It is not exhaustive since some of the fragments of the scrolls are not even complete words. Yet it does cover the biblical references in the scrolls.
Very difficult to read in terms of time consuming, but extremely interesting for what we have known about Judaism and Christianity. I learn a ot.
Looks interesting. I haven't started reading it yet as it's a text book for next semester.
It's an interesting book to read!
Not knowing how to read ancient Hebrew or Aramaic, I’m left to rely on someone else’s interpretation of the Dead Sea Scrolls in English. Like I do with the Bible, I have discovered I can expand my understanding by comparing translations.When I decided to read the Dead Sea Scrolls, there were three main translations that competed for my attention:The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated, Second Edition, by Florentino Garcia MartinezDead Sea Scrolls, A New Translation, by Michael Wise, Martin Abegg Jr., & Edward CookThe Complete Dead Sea Scrolls in English by Geza VermesNot knowing anything about the Dead Sea Scrolls and basing my decision off reviews and the description of the book, I purchased Dead Sea Scrolls, A New Translation, by Michael Wise, Martin Abegg Jr., & Edward Cook (hereafter abbreviated as DSSNT). Later, in order to compare translations, I added to my library The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated, Second Edition, by Florentino Garcia Martinez (hereafter abbreviated as TDSST).The fragmentary nature of the scrolls makes it an arduous task to read through any translation of these scrolls. One must be rather serious and committed in order to find the nuggets of wisdom to be found there.Without some form of bearing on the landscape and background of the different scrolls I would have been somewhat lost without the commentary provided in the Dead Sea Scrolls, A New Translation (DSSNT) by Wise, Abegg and Cook. Unless you are familiar with some of this background information you would almost need a companion text like James VanderKam's The Dead Sea Scrolls Today, to fully appreciate The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated (TDSST) by Martinez, where he presents the full translation without commentary on the individual manuscripts.When I began to try to compare the two translations (DSSNT and TDSST) I quickly discovered how challenging it was to find a given manuscript in the other translation. Between the two, the manuscripts of the scrolls are organized in completely different ways. The Index of Manuscripts in the Epilogue of DSSNT became an invaluable resource. Unfortunately, TDSST did not have something similar for when I want to find a given manuscript in that translation. For this reason I spent several weeks composing an index of my own to help me navigate between them, which I published online as Dead Sea Scroll Index, Comparison of English Translations.Having solved the problem of being able to find the manuscripts between the two translations, I could now more easily compare them, which has given me a richer experience in understanding the beauty of these wonderful ancient scrolls from Qumran.I give here only a few examples:---------------------------------1QH Col 18:33-34DSSNT p. 106“My heart behaves as if mad in anguish and my loins tremble. My groaning enters the depths and completely searches out the chambers of Sheol.â€TDSST p. 352“My heart flutters in anxiety, my kidneys in alarm, my sigh reaches down to the abyss, even pierces the caverns of Sheol.â€1QH Col 16:11-12DSSNT p. 102But You, O [G]od, You protect its fruit with the mystery of powerful warriors, holy spirits, and the whirling flame of fire so that none may [come to the] fountain of lifeTDSST p. 345But you, O God, you protect your fruit with they mystery of powerful heroes, of spirits of holiness, so that the flame of the searing fire [will] not [reach] the spring of life1QH Col 17: 15-17DSSNT p. 104one person may be wiser [than his fell]ow, humanity is more honored than a vessel of c[lay], and one spirit may surpass another spirit; but as for Your mighty str[ength], no power can compare. To your glory there are no [bounds, and] to Your wisdom there is no measure,TDSST p. 348a fellow is wiser [than a fellow,] the flesh is respected more than one made from [clay,] one spirit is more powerful than another spirit; but before your might, nothing is strong, and nothing is [comparable] to your glory, and to your wisdom there is no measure,4Q417 Frag 2 col 1:6-12DSSNT p. 380[... at night meditate on the secret] of why things are and investigate it at all times, and then you will know truth and evil, wisdom [and falsehood ... Consider the wicked] in all their ways, with all their punishments throughout the world-eras and the eternal punishmentTDSST p. 387[... day and night meditate on the mystery of exis]tence and always investigate. Then you shall know truth and injustice, wisdom [...] ... [...] in all his paths with his visitations through all the eternal periods, and the eternal visitation.4Q418 Frag 81:15-20DSSNT p. 387You are one who understands, if He has made you rule over the skill of His hands, and know [...] goodness for all humans who pass by, and from there you will attend to your food [...] consider well and add to your learning by listening to all your instructors [...] show your poverty to all who seek pleasure and then you will establish [...] you will be filled and satisfied by abundant goodness and by the skill of your hands [...] for God has distributed an inheritance to every [living thing] and all those who are wise at heart will have success [...]TDSST p. 391And you, understand; if through the wisdom of hands he has given you dominion, [...] extension (?) for every man who walks. And from there he will administer your nourishment [...] Understand the praised one, and by the whole hand of your sages add [...] Show your lack to all those who seek delicacies. Then you will understand [...] Fill and be replete with the abundance of goodness and the wisdom of your hands [...] for God has divided the inheritance [of every living creature] and all those wise at heart understand [...]---------------------------------Overall, if I had to only select one translation I would recommend Dead Sea Scrolls, A New Translation, by Wise, Abegg, & Cook. Not only do they provide insightful commentary to help you navigate the landscape of the scrolls and great resources in their Epilogue, their translation seemed to capture what felt to me like a better essence of meaning. Having said that, I have to say there were many cases where I felt in The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated by Martinez, he captured passages in a way that resonated as something truer to my understanding of things. I cannot speak to what is a better translation as I have no experience with the original ancient languages. I can only compare with my own perceptions as I understand things and try to remain open to truth wherever it comes from.Whatever translation you choose, I advise the reader to take the effort to read at least some edifying Dead Sea Scroll manuscripts like the Thanksgiving Scroll (1QH, 4Q427, and 4Q429), Wisdom scroll on the Secret of the Way Things Are or Mystery of Existence (4Q416-418), Blessings of the Wise (4Q525), and Apocryphal Psalms of David (11Q5-6; 4Q88, 4Q448). There are many delightful nuggets of wisdom that are sure to enlighten and uplift in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Your time will not be wasted in searching them out.
