Abstract

L'"Écrit de Damas" est un document à part dans la bibliothèque de Qumrân découverte entre 1947 et 1967 sur les bords de la mer Morte. Une partie du document est connue dès la fin du XIXe siècle grâce à la découverte de deux manuscrits dans la synagogue du Vieux-Caire en Égypte. L'un de seize pages date du Xe siècle de notre ère, l'autre de deux pages est une copie du XIIe siècle. Dix manuscrits de Qumrân, copiés au tournant de l'ère chrétienne, comblent en partie les lacunes des manuscrits découverts au Caire. Malgré les dix siècles de différence entre les manuscrits palestiniens et les parchemins égyptiens, une des copies médiévales est très fidèle aux manuscrits de Qumrân. C'est pourquoi on propose un texte reconstruit à partir des différents manuscrits. Ainsi, les manuscrits palestiniens de l'Écrit de Damas permettent de restituer des parties du texte perdues dans les copies cairotes.

Abstract

All the evidence for daily, sabbath, and festival prayers in the Qumran scrolls is analysed in detail, document by document. On the basis of formal features and social-liturgical setting, these prayers are compared with each other to uncover divergent prayer traditions. Comparative material beyond the scrolls is used to reassess their place in the development of Jewish prayer. Evidence for prayers of different origin found at Qumran is important for reconsidering the nature of the scrolls, the community(s) which used them, and the history of Jewish liturgy. For several texts significant new reconstructions are offered.

Abstract

"This volume investigates the layers of meaning of the Qumran community's liturgical practice as prayer (communication with the divine), ritual (actions that establish and reinforce the social and ideological structures of the community), and speech (containing both verbal and non-verbal communication)."--Jacket.

Abstract

This volume investigates critical practices by which the Qumran community constituted itself as a sectarian society. Key to the formation of the community was the reconstruction of the identity of individual members. In this way the “self” became an important symbolic space for the development of the ideology of the sect. Persons who came to experience themselves in light of the narratives and symbolic structures embedded in the community practices would have developed the dispositions of affinity and estrangement necessary for the constitution of a sectarian society. Drawing on various theories of discourse and practice in rhetoric, philosophy, and anthropology, the book examines the construction of the self in two central documents: the Serek ha-Yahad and the Hodayot.
