“…The raz nihyeh is the hidden plan of God and allows insight into the divisions and workings of good and evil in the world. There is a close cor respondence between the vocabulary and concepts in 4QInstruction and in the Treatise of the Two Spirits, in columns III and IV of 1QS (Lange 1995;Tigchelaar 2001). This indi cates that the teachings of these texts are related and can be mutually illuminating.…”

“…The concept of the "mystery of being" is similar to the concept of wisdom in Proverbs and Job in the sense that it organizes the cosmos and society (Lange 1995). But there is a much stronger emphasis on temporality in raz nihyeh: it is the hidden force behind histo ry and causes situations to develop and change both on a small scale and on a large scale.…”

Wisdom in the Dead Sea Scrolls and Early Jewish Interpretation

This article argues that wisdom in the Dead Sea Scrolls is not a continuation of the biblical Wisdom tradition. What we see in the scrolls is rather a reinterpretation of biblical Wisdom Literature within new conceptual frameworks and within the broader context of the interpretive culture of Second Temple Judaism. One of the main aspects of this new version of wisdom is that it is hidden and not available to just anyone. The emphasis on mystery and the hidden structures of time is shared by Wisdom texts from Qumran and from the Hellenistic world. Wisdom is omnipresent across Jewish traditions as it is integrated with Torah, revelation, and prayer. The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls has made clear how deeply embedded wisdom was across genres and traditions.

“…The belief that history has already been predetermined is likewise found in apocalyptic texts preserved at Qumran (1 Enoch and Jubilees), which posit the existence of ancient heavenly tablets upon which is inscribed the entire recorded history of humanity (Paul 1974; Najman 2004, 62–63). Scholars working with the recently published wisdom texts from Qumran (e.g., 1Q/4QInstruction; Strugnell and Harrington 1999) have identified in these texts the belief in a preexistent hidden order of the world (the raz nihyeh ; see Lange 1995; Harrington 1996).…”

The present study is intended as a synthesis of the current state of research on religion in the Qumran community as articulated in the Dead Sea Scrolls. We treat here religion both in thought and in practice. The former refers to the theological belief system of the Qumran community: God, dualism and predestination and eschatology, messianism, and resurrection; the latter indicates the way that the religious ideals of the Qumran community were actualized in daily life: formation of Jewish law, temple, sacrifice, and prayer, and ritual and purity. Our intention is to present the critical issues (and texts) as they relate to each of these subjects and the various scholarly models associated with their study.
