Leviticus and Its Reception in the Dead Sea Scrolls from Qumran

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this informative and accessible guide, Baesick Choi examines a wealth of evidence for the use and influence of the book of Leviticus in the late Second Temple period, drawing primarily upon the copies, citations, and allusions present among the Qumran Dead Sea Scrolls. In doing so, he argues persuasively that Leviticus was not only copied and read, but also significantly influenced and helped shape the composition and ideology of other early Jewish texts.”
