Abstract

In his erudite, well-argued and elegant paper, A. Baumgarten (henceforth AB) has meticulously combed the vast Qumranic literature in order to disprove the hypothesis that the Qumran group is identical with the Essenes, the hypothesis that he describes as the closest to a scholarly consensus.' He invited me, most graciously, to write a rejoinder. I accept his invitation and I will try to demonstrate where I think he is wrong.
