The 1990s might be roughly defined as the “Qumran decade” in Spanish scholarship on [[Second Temple Judaism]], in so far as nine volumes on the [[Dead Sea Scrolls]] were published in Spanish language between 1991 and 1996, including [[Florentino García Martínez]]’s 1992 Spanish edition of the significant manuscripts then available, which was translated into English, Dutch, Portuguese and Italian in 1994, 1994-95, 1995, and 1996, respectively. In 1991 [[Santiago Ausín Olmos (1939-), scholar|Santiago Ausín Olmos]] published a philological study on the ethical language of the sectarian writings from [[Qumran]]. Then followed [[César Vidal Manzanares (1958-), scholar|César Vidal Manzanares]]’ two consecutive, introductory essays on the [[Qumran]] community and its literature (1993, 1995); [[Florentino García Martínez]]’s and [[Julio Trebolle Barrera]]’s study on the men from [[Qumran]] (1993), which was translated into English and Italian in 1995 and 1996, respectively; and two edited volumes, one by [[Antonio Piñero Sáenz]] and [[Dimas Fernández Galiano (1951-), scholar|Dimas Fernández Galiano]] (1994) and one by [[Julio Trebolle Barrera]] (1999), who had earlier published with [[Luis Vegas Montaner]] the proceedings of the Madrid Qumran Congress (1992). In addition, the Spanish translation of [[Jean Pouilly]]’s 1990 introduction to the Scrolls and [[Hartmut Stegemann]]’s 1993 study on the [[Essenes]], [[Qumran]], [[John the Baptist]] and Jesus (which was translated into English in 1998), were published in 1991 and 1996, respectively.
Other themes studied were the history of Messianic ideas in ancient Judaism and emerging Christianity (by [[José Luis Sicre Díaz (1940-), scholar|José Luis Sicre Díaz]] [1995]), the development of intertestamental literature (by [[Gonzalo Aranda Pérez (1943-), scholar|Gonzalo Aranda Pérez]], [[Florentino García Martínez]] and [[Miguel Pérez Fernández]] [1996]), Philo (by [[Sofía Torallas Tovar]] [1997]), Ben Sira (by [[Nuria Calduch-Benages]] [1997], who also published in English and German on the [[Book of Sirach]] and the [[Wisdom of Solomon]] in 1998 and 1999, respectively), and the [[Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs]] (by [[Rosa M. Boixareu i Vilaplana]] [1999]). Several volumes on the study of the historical Jesus, the [[New Testament]], and both the Jewish roots and the development of earliest Christianity, were also published in this decade by [[Rafael Aguirre Monasterio (1941-), scholar|Rafael Aguirre Monasterio]], [[Xavier Alegre Santamaría]], [[María Ángeles Alonso Ávila, scholar|María Ángeles Alonso Ávila]], [[David Álvarez Cineira]] (in German), [[Carmen Bernabé Ubieta]], [[Aurelio de Santos Otero]], [[Juan Miguel Díaz Rodelas]], [[Joaquín González Echegaray]], [[Antonio Piñero Sáenz]] (whose 1993 book on the Life of Jesus according to the Apocryphal Gospels was translated into French, German, Italian, and Portuguese in 1996, 1997, and 2002, and must thus be regarded, together with [[Florentino García Martínez]]'s 1992 Spanish translation of the Scrolls, as one of the two most ever translated Spanish volumes), [[Antonio Rodríguez Carmona]], [[Ramón Trevijano Etcheverría (1932-), scholar|Ramón Trevijano Etcheverría]], [[Josep Oriol Tuñi Vancells]], [[Senén Vidal García]], and [[César Vidal Manzanares (1958-), scholar|César Vidal Manzanares]].
A series of relevant translations of ancient texts into Spanish language also took place in the 1990s. Several Targumim were translated by [[Josep Ribera Florit]] (1992, 1997) and [[Emiliano Martínez Borobio]] (1998); [[Philo]]’s [[De somniis]] and [[De Josepho]] by [[Sofía Torallas Tovar]] (1997); [[Josephus]]’ [[Autobiography]] and [[Contra Apionem]] by [[Margarita Rodríguez de Sepúlveda]]; [[Josephus]]' [[Jewish War]] by [[Jesús María Nieto Ibáñez]] (1997, 1999); and the Latin version of [[4 Ezra]] by [[Gabriel Marcelo Nápole (1957-), scholar|Gabriel Marcelo Nápole]] (1998).
As earlier said, both [[Florentino García Martínez]]'s Spanish edition of the [[Dead Sea Scrolls]] and [[Florentino García Martínez]]’s and [[Julio Trebolle Barrera]]'s book on the [[Qumran]] community were translated into several European languages (including English) between 1994 and 1996. No other books dealing with the study of the Second Temple period originally published in Spanish had been translated into other languages prior to that date. Moreover, [[Florentino García Martínez]] published in 1992 a most remarkable study in English language on [[Qumran]] and apocalyptic; he also co-edited two collective volumes, one on the Bible and the Scrolls (with [[Anthony Hilshort]] and [[Casper J. Labuschagne]], and one on the halakhah from Qumran (with [[Ed Noort]]), in 1992 and 1997, respectively, as well as a volume and one on the study of early Judaism and the Hebrew Bible (with [[Moshe J. Bernstein]] and [[John Kampen]]) and one on the Noah traditions (with [[Gerard P. Luttikhuizen]]) in 1998; a complete bibliography of the [[Dead Sea Scrolls]] covering the years 1970-1975 (with [[Donald W. Parry]]) in 1997, ''The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition'' (with [[Eibert J.C. Tigchelaar]]) between 1997 and 1998, and vol. XXIII of the [[Discoveries in the Judean Desert]] series (with [[Eibert J.C. Tigchelaar]] and [[Adam S. van der Woude]]) in 1998. Meanwhile, [[Natalio Fernández Marcos]] published in 1994 an Engish volume on the [[Septuagint]] and the Old Latin versions of the Books of Kings. In addition, [[Gonzalo Aranda Pérez (1943-), scholar|Gonzálo Aranda Perez]]'s, [[Florentino García Martínez]]'s and [[Miguel Pérez Fernández]]'s study on intertestamental literature was translated into Italian in 1998.
As for the Spanish edition of contemporary studies, one must mention [[Johann Maier]]’s ''Zwishen den Testamenten: Geschichte und Religion in der Zeit des zweiten Tempels'', [[Walter Schmithals]]' ''Die Apokalyptik'', and a rather large number of volumes dealing with the study of the [[historical Jesus]], the [[New Testament]] and [[Christian Origins]] which include several studies by [[David L. Balch]], [[François Bovon]], [[Raymond E. Brown]], [[Matthieu Collin]], [[Oscar Cullmann]], [[Alfred Edersheim]], [[David Flusser]], [[Pierre Lenhardt]], [[Ulrich Luz]], [[John P. Meier]], [[Romano Penna]], [[Jacques Schlosser]], [[Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza]], [[John E. Stambaugh]], [[Gerd Theissen]], and [[Karen Jo Torjesen]].
