Description
Summary:Eight fragmentary manuscripts of the Book of Daniel survived for two millennia in the caves of Qumran. Archaeologically and palaeographically their dates span from the late second century b. c. to the middle of the first century a. d. These scrolls hold an important place in the history of biblical manuscripts. Especially significant is 4QDanc because it was written only a half-century after the Book of Daniel was composed. A preliminary edition of the most extensively preserved scroll, 4QDana, was published as Part 1 of this article (Ulrich 1987). Provided here as Part 2 are preliminary editions of the other two substantially preserved scrolls from Cave 4, 4QDanb and 4QDanc.
