Italian Edition (2019)
"Opera di una dei maggiori esponenti degli studi sul giudaismo del secondo tempio, il saggio di James C. VanderKam corona una vita di ricerche dedicate a uno dei più importanti ritrovamenti archeologici e letterari dell'età moderna. Nel suo agile volume l'autore illustra l'apporto dei rotoli del Mar Morto allo studio critico delle Scritture ebraiche e cristiane: dall'autorevolezza dei libri biblici e cosiddetti «parabiblici» all'interpretazione e al commento del testo delle Scritture e alle controversie fra i diversi gruppi giudaici dei tempi di Gesù. Scritto in modo piano e sempre accattivante, il libro si distingue per la profondità dell'analisi critica e l'originalità delle prospettive aperte dall'autore."--Publisher description.
