Footnote 3 – BAR Interviews Avraham Eitan

Subsequent to this interview, Mr. Eitan advised us (in April 1986) that he has had two meetings with Père Benoit, that Père Benoit has now heard from all scholars with scroll assignments, and that Père Benoit has given Mr. Eitan a report in English on the progress and proposed progress for completion of the scholars’ work. Mr. Eitan declined to make this report available at this time, but said it will be discussed during the coming months and the Department of Antiquities and Museums will then decide what to do.—Ed.
