Overview

Qumran and the Dead Sea Scrolls on the one hand, and the Targum on the other, became the main focuses of interest in Spanish scholarship in the 1960s.

In 1960 Jesús Cantera Ortiz de Urbina published a Spanish translation of the Habakuk Pesher from Qumran with a brief critical study of its text, and in 1968 Alejandro Díez Macho began to edit and translate, together with Roger le Déaut, Martin McNamara and Michael Maher, the sole extant manuscript of Targum Neophyti 1, which he had discovered in 1956 in the Vatican Library; this very remarkable edition appeared in 6 vols. between 1968 and 1979, and should be regarded, together with Florentino García Martínez’s works on the Dead Sea Scrolls and the history of the Qumran community, as the most outstanding Spanish contribution to the study of the Second Temple period.

A book on Philo of Alexandria by Rafael Díaz de León and a study on Paul's theology by José María González Ruiz were also published in the 1960s. As to the the Spanish edition of foreing volumes, the translations of Rudolf Schnackenburg's 1954 Die sittliche Botschaft des Neuen Testaments, Jean Daniélou's 1958 essay on Philo, François Amiot's, Amédée Brunot's, Léon Cristiani's, Henri Daniel-Rops', and Jean Daniélou's 1962 essay on the sources of Jesus' biography, Oscar Cullmann's Christus und die Zeit (1947) and Der Staat im Neue Testament (1956), Rudolf Schnackenburg's Gottesherrschaft und Reich (1959) and several volumes by Lucien Cerfaux and John A. T. Robinson on Paul (originally published in 1942, 1962, 1965, and 1952, respectively), were published in this period.
