Treating six major groups of texts, she shows how differences in the texts result from a particular understanding of the work of the scribe -- not merely to copy but also to interpret, update, and make relevant the Scripture for the contemporary Jewish community of the time. This scribal practice led to texts that were \"rewritten\" or \"reworked\" and considered no less important or accurate than the originals. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Propounding a new theory of how these texts cohere as a group, Crawford offers an original and provocative work for readers interested in the Second Temple period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sidnie White Crawford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
