Interest -continues at high
pitch in the recently discovered
Dead Sea Scrolls. .
In one of the recent books on
the subject, "The Qumran Com-
munity: Its History and Scrolls,"
published by Macmillan (.60
5th, N.Y. 11), Prof. Charles . T.
Fritsch describes the Qumran
region where the caves, in which
the scrolls were found, are lo-
cated.
Dr. Fritsch makes extensive
references to the descriptions of
the Essenes in Josephus and
Philo. His contention is that
while "the Qumran manuscripts
have already proved to be ex-
ceedingly valuable for Old Tes-
tament studies," that "in the
field of New Testament studies
. . . the documents will prove
to be especially significant."
He declares that "John the
Baptist was a key figure through
whom many of the practices and
teachings of the Qumran sect
found their way into early rc
Christianity." He makes com-
parisons, through quotations, to
prove his point.
"Most striking of all," he
writes, "is the similarity be-
tween the Pauline doctrine of i
justification by faith, and that
which is found in the Qumran
sectarian documents."
Prof. Fritsch's volume has
special value in the extensive
bibliography appended to the
text. It includes a list of all
the books and articles on the
subject of the. Dead Sea Scrolls
and lists those of Prof. Solomon
Zeitlin, who is challenging the
antiquity claims for the scrolls.
All he does, however, is list the
Zeitlin works and refer to them
in two footnotes.
In a review of Fritsch's
book, in the latest issue of
Jewish Quarterly Review,
Prof. Zeitlin charges that the
Christian theologian "has no
evidence" on his statements
regarding Herod, the Essenes
and the Pharisees. "The fact
is," Dr. Zeitlin writes, "that
the term Essenes is not men-
tioned even once .in the
scrolls and the scrolls were
not written by them. More-
over, his translation of the
text of the so-called Dead
Sea scrolls indicates posi-
tively that he is not well ac-
quainted with the Hebrew,
and he did not grasp the
meaning of the text."
In his refutation, Dr. Zeitlin
again makes the demand that
the American School of Ori-
ental Research publish without
delay the Hebrew text of the
scrolls, if their antiquity is to
be proven.
