More DescriptionThe Princeton Theological Seminary Dead Sea Scrolls Project provides critical editions of the Dead Sea Scrolls which are not copies of books in the Hebrew Bible (the so-called "Old Testament"). The format of the series is unique; each manuscript is presented with Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek text on the left page with facing English translation on the right. The series intends to be a standard reference work. An introduction with selected bibliography precedes each document.Volume 8A brings together Dead Sea Scrolls that develop stories in Genesis along with other texts. The Genesis Apocryphon (1Q20, 3Q14 frg. 8) is a creative, interpretive, and theologically driven rewriting of a portion of Genesis. Several other documents provide traditions about Noah and his sons, including the Book of Noah, Admonitions Based on the Flood, and a composite text of the Birth of Noah manuscripts (4Q534-536). The collection also provides the manuscript witnesses to A Joseph Apocryphon found on Masada.
