Subdivided into three segments (Hebrew Bible, Greek Bible, Qumran), this updated and revised collection of essays represents the work of Emanuel Tov in the past seventeen years. He focuses on various aspects of the textual analysis of the Hebrew and Greek Bible, as well as the Qumran biblical manuscripts in Hebrew and Greek. Further he takes a special interest in the orthography of biblical manuscripts, the nature of the early Masoretic Text, the nature of the Qumran biblical texts and their importance for our understanding of the history of the biblical text, the editions of the Hebrew Bible, and the use of computers in biblical studies. The author also focuses on the interaction between textual and literary criticism and the question of the original text or texts of the Hebrew Bible. His special interests in the Qumran scrolls include the nature of the Qumran corpus, their scribal background, the contents of the various caves, and the number of the compositions and copies found at Qumran. His interest in the Septuagint translation evolves around its text-critical value, the Greek texts from the Judean Desert, and translation technique.

The New Messianic Version (NMV): The Complete Old & New Testaments: together in Print for the FIRST TIME! The NMV of the Bible is becoming increasingly popular among believers in Jesus because it highlights some significant things that other Bible versions do not. The NMV, challenges both Jews and Christians to see that the whole Bible is Jewish. It restores the names of people and places to their "Jewish" pronunciation by more accurately transliterating their names, and it translates every name of people and places in-line with the text, so that it reads much like an "Amplified Bible." Author Tov Rose says, "Today, Jewish people and Christians alike suffer a similar kind of blindness concerning the nature and person of God: Because of this, they do not know their God as they should. There is a secret hidden in your Bible, and this is the only Bible that clearly reveals it by transliterating both forms of the Divine Name." He doesn't use the Sacred Name to encourage people to speak the Divine Name, but to teach something several New Testament authors also taught: This Bible answers the one question most Christians and Jewish people alike get wrong, "Who is the God of the Hebrew Bible that performs miracles, and is seen and spoken with by people at least 44 times?" If you said, "The Father," then you've missed several important New Testament revelations about the identity of this Divine Person! The New Testament book of John 6:46 Jesus says, 'No man has seen The Father...' well then," says Tov, "who have people seen?" This Bible Version clearly shows you who the "author" really is, and it isn't God the Father. As a matter of fact, John calls him "The Word," Paul calls Him, "Messiah," and Jude calls Him, "Jesus!" The NMV clearly tells you which Old Testament Names of God represent Father God, and which others represent The Son of God--an ancient teaching understood and written about by the New Testament authors. Tov again, "For example, just look at Isaiah 44:6: 'Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts: 'I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me.' Then look at the New Testament's book of Revelation 22:13 where Jesus says, 'I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.' Obviously, there is something more to our theology that is clearly misunderstood among many of today's Christians and Jews alike. 'Jesus said unto them, 'Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.'' (John 8:58). Many Christian and Jewish scholars believe Jesus actually pronounced the Unspeakable Divine Name when he said that, identifying himself as that Divine Person!" In several ways, this is not like other Bibles, it intentionally views the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible through a New Covenant 1st Century Jewish believer's point of view, rather than assuming a "Progressive Revelation" stance as nearly all other English Bibles do. In other words, "Now that we have the New Testament Revelation of Jesus. We are SUPPOSED to read our Old Testaments/Hebrew Bibles THIS way." Jews are challenged by the implication that the Tanakh (Old Testament) is an incomplete Bible without the New Testament understanding that Yeshua (Jesus) is the God of the Hebrew Bible. Christianity can only be truly understood only from a Jewish perspective, hatred of Jewish people (aka: Anti-Semitism), can have no place with followers of Jesus. In short, The NMV restores the Jewish flavor and understanding of those first generation followers of Jesus in a way that is unique and hasn't been done before! NOTE: This Edition is Small Print, 6pt, Cambria Font

Until recently, most non-biblical manuscripts attested in the Qumran library were regarded as copies of texts that were composed after the books of the Hebrew Bible were written. Students of the Hebrew Bible found the Dead Sea Scrolls therefore mostly of interest for the textual and interpretative histories of these books. The present collection confirms the importance of the Dead Sea Scrolls for both areas, by showing that they have revolutionized our understanding of how the text of the biblical books developed and how they were interpreted. Beyond the textual and interpretative histories, though, many texts attested in the Qumran library illuminate the time in which the later books of the Hebrew Bible were composed and reworked as well as Jewish life and law in the time when the canon of the Hebrew Bible developed. This volume gives important examples as to how the early texts attested in the Dead Sea Scrolls help to better understand individual biblical books and as to how the later texts among them illustrate Jewish life and law when the canon of the Hebrew Bible evolved. In order to find an adequate expertise for the seminar »The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hebrew Bible«, the editors invited both junior and senior specialists in the fields of Hebrew Bible, Second Temple Judaism, Dead Sea Scrolls and Rabbinics to Rome.

How did ancient scribes interpret their own reality by means of scriptural exegesis? The essays in this volume explore this question from various perspectives by examining the earliest known exegetical texts of Jewish origin, namely, the exegetical texts from the Qumran library. Scholars have debated the precise nature of the exegetical techniques used in the Qumran texts. To bring clarity to the discussion, this book analyzes the phenomenon of reading the present in the Qumran library and asks how far comparable phenomena can be observed in authoritative literature in ancient Israel and Judah, in the textual tradition of the Hebrew and Greek Bible, in ancient Judaism, and in early Christian literature. --From publisher's description.
