A Messiah before Jesus? / John J. Collins -- An Essene Messiah? Comments on Israel Knohl, the Messiah before Jesus/ Jesus, John, and the Dead Sea scrolls : assessing typologies of Restoration/ Paul and James on the law in light of the Dead Sea scrolls/ "Spirit of Holiness" as eschatological principle of obedience/ Guided by God: divine aid in interpretation in the Dead Sea scrolls and the New Testament/ The Dead Sea scrolls and Christian theology/ Apocalyptic theology and the Dead Sea scrolls: a response to Jonathan Wilson/ John J. Collins -- Craig A. Evans -- Martin G. Abegg Jr. -- Barry D. Smith -- R. Glenn Wooden -- Jonathan R. Wilson -- John J. Collins.
Were first-century Jews expecting a messiah? Were other messiahs mentioned in the Dead Sea Scrolls? Were key early Christian symbols also found in the Judaism of Qumran? Did the Jews of Jesus's day believe in salvation by works? In the Holy Spirit? How did the New Testament authors think about inspired interpretation? In this book, six leading scholars-John Collins, Craig Evans, Martin Abegg, R. Glenn Wooden, Barry Smith, and Jonathan Wilson-examine some of the major issues that the Dead Sea Scrolls have raised for our understanding of early Christianity. These cutting-edge articles explore the impact of the Scrolls on Christianity, delving deeper than most surveys on the Dead Sea Scrolls.
