Description
Résumé:This article identifies eleven cases where the editors of DJD XVII, the Samuel scrolls from Qumran, claim that one of the scrolls agrees with LXX but they have misread, and in some instances misidentified, the fragment. These cases are analyzed by using Photoshop to superimpose extant characters directly onto digital images of the fragments. The editors’ errors suggest that some circular thinking may have crept into their work: their belief that the Samuel scrolls are closely related to LXX caused them to see agreements that were not there, which in turn confirmed their belief in the close relationship.
