Biblical Archaeology Society e-mail: 1.202.364.3300 ext. 230 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WASHINGTON, D.C. (September 2, 2008) -- Dead Sea Scroll in Stone published in English for the first time. Several months ago, a significant splash was made in the academic community by Biblical scholar Israel Knohl of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, whose interpretation of an ancient text caused scholars to look at early Christianity and Judaism in a different light. Dr. Knohl’s research has concluded that certain passages indicated that there had been a precedent for the three-day death and resurrection paradigm. His research may be a new chapter in the study of the relationship between Jewish and Christian messianism. Professor Knohl’s findings were first announced at the Israel Museum’s conference in early July. However, just this month he has published his research and his full translation of the text in the United States. His article and translation can be found in the current issue of the Biblical Archaeology Review (September/October 2008), published by the Biblical Archaeology Society. Called “Gabriel’s Revelation,” Knohl’s article and the English translation of the Dead Sea Scroll in Stone can be found in the current issue of the Biblical Archaeology Review.
