Hebrew in the Second Temple Period: The Language of the Dead Sea Scrolls and of Other Contemporary Sources
December 29-31, 2008
The Orion Center is joining together with the Eliezer Ben-Yehuda Center for the Study of the History of the Hebrew Language to hold the 12th International Orion Symposium, “Hebrew in the Second Temple Period: The Language of the Dead Sea Scrolls and of Other Contemporary Sources.”
The symposium brings together senior and young scholars from Israel and abroad who research different aspects of the Hebrew language traditions that existed during the Second Temple Period. All the participants deal with at least one of the following corpora: the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Book of Ben Sira, Tannaitic Hebrew, Samaritan Hebrew, and the Hebrew reflected in Greek transcriptions. Paper topics range from grammatical and syntactic issues to studies on the vocabulary of Qumranic and related documents, including the recently published Vision of Gabriel.
This symposium will also be the fifth in a series of scholarly meetings on the Hebrew of the Scrolls initiated by T. Muraoka. Previous gatherings have taken place in Leiden (1995 and 1997), Beer Sheva (1999), and Strasbourg (2006). The proceedings of the previous symposia have been published by Brill in the series Studies on the Texts of the Desert of Judah: The Hebrew of the Dead Sea Scrolls & Ben Sira (vol. 26), Sirach, Scrolls, & Sages (vol. 33), Diggers at the Well (vol. 36), Conservatism and Innovation in the Hebrew Language of the Hellenistic Period (vol. 73).
