Endnote 29 – The Dead Sea Scrolls and Early Christianity: Part One
For the text and extensive discussion and comparison of it with New Testament passages, see P.J. Kobelski, Melchizedek and Melchiresac, The Catholic Biblical Quarterly Monograph Series 10 (Washington, DC: Catholic Biblical Association, 1981). Here I leave out of consideration the more speculative suggestions of scholars who have found James the Just to be important in the scrolls Eisenman), Jesus to be the Teacher of Righteousness, or the apostle Paul the Wicked Priest (Teicher).
