Leviticus and Its Reception in the Dead Sea Scrolls from Qumran - Hardcover
by Baesick Choi (Author)
A large amount of Leviticus material has been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. Yet there is surprisingly little secondary scholarly analysis of the role of Leviticus in this corpus. The book of Leviticus survives in several manuscripts; it also features in quotations and allusions, so that it seems to be a foundational source for the ideology behind the composition of some of the nonscriptural texts. Indeed this volume argues that the ideology of the Holiness Code persisted in the communities that collected the manuscripts and placed them in the Qumran Caves.
Baesick Peter Choi is a pastor at Fishersville United Methodist Church in Fishersville, Virginia. Dr. Choi has spent many years studying the book of Leviticus. He completed an MA degree in biblical studies at Trinity Western University and a PhD at the University of Manchester under Professor George J. Brooke.
