Rediscovering the Dead Sea Scrolls: An Assessment of Old and New Approaches and Methods (2010) is a volume edited by Maxine L. Grossman.

Abstract

"Tools for Our Work introduces readers to a wide range of established and experimental treatments of the Dead Sea Scrolls, including paleography, archaeology, manuscript analysis, and a variety of literary, historical, and social scientific approaches. Written by experts in Dead Sea Scrolls studies, these essays — while each able to stand on their own as state-of-the-field discussions — together provide a vibrant intersectional picture of scrolls studies on the cusp of its seventh decade."--Publisher description
