We know from the Dead Sea Scroll and other evidence that all Jews did not always share the same Bible—the same biblical books, divided in the same fashion into the same order, and sections…how and why did this unity develop?
Marc Brettler is the Bernice and Morton Lerner Professor of Jewish Studies in the Department of Religious Studies at Duke University. He has published and lectured widely on metapor and the Bible, the nature of biblical historical texts and gender issues and the Bible.
Part of the Association for Jewish Studies (AJS) Distinguished Lectureship Program. The Emanuel Synagogue is a co-sponsor of this program with Congregation Beth Israel and other synagogues.
