History of Research (1970s -- Notes

After the death of Roland de Vaux in September 1971, Pierre Benoit succeeded him as editor-in-chief of the International Team and the DJD series. The work of publication of the still unpublished material proceeded very slowly. In the 1970s only one volume appeared in the DJD series, in 1977, with more fragments from Cave 4.

In 1972 Spanish Jesuit scholar Jose O'Callagan proposed to identify Greek papyri fragments from Cave 7 as portions of the New Testament.

In 1976 Milik published the Qumran fragments of 1 Enoch. In the early 1950s he had announced that the Book of Parables was not at Qumran and had to be regarded as a late Christian text. His theory had blocked for 25 years any research on that document, but now did not appear as conclusive as he had claimed.

In 1977 the Temple Scroll (discovered probably in 1956, and confiscated by the Israelis durung the Sixth Day War in 1967) was first published by Yigael Yadin; it shifted the emphasis from the theological to the legal-halakhic elements of the scrolls.
