1950s

No Italian scholars were part of the team of specialists who worked with the newly found manuscripts, yet the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls generated much interest in Italy. Some of the earliest articles on the Scrolls were published in Italian by Milik and by Italian-Israeli scholar Umberto Cassuto. The Professors at the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome, notably, Pietro Boccaccio and Guido Berardi, were directly engaged in the publication of some of the first printed editions of the Scrolls. Catholic Biblical scholars, such as Angelo Penna and Giuseppe Ricciotti, offered original contributions to the study of the manuscripts. Milik wrote his book at the invitation of Giovanni Rinaldi in a double French-Italian edition.

Orientalist Sabatino Moscati offered in 1955 a detailed introduction to the Scrolls from an archaeological perspective. The scholarly works of Burrows and Allegro were translated into Italian and so was the book of journalist Edmund Wilson which also in Italy significantly contributed to popularize the results of the research in the field. After Cassuto the voice of Jewish scholarship is heard through the translation of the work of French Jewish Henry E. Del Medico and the first Hebrew-Italian edition of the Hodayot by Elio Piattelli.
