Licht interprets min in 1QS 9 4 as comparative "more than" in his commentary
Megilat Ha-Serakim (in Hebrew). This is one of the oldest commentaries on
1QS but still one of the best (Megilat Ha-Serakim, Bialik Press, Jerusalem,
1965). I have followed this interpretation in my English abbreviated
anthology, Prayers from Qumran: Issues and Methods, SBL 1993 Seminar Papers.
Hope this is helpful.

To the Orion DSS discussion list:
I am interested in commentaries on 1QS 9:3-5, particularly the discussion
concerning the min in mibbasar (line 4 b). Recent literature as
Charlesworth (1994) and Martinez (1994) think that the min is to be
translated "without" indicating rejection of the temple of Jerusalem. Is
this an accepted translation today? Why? Do you know if anyone has been
commenting on this passage lately?
min in mibbasar and mehelbe in 1 QS 9:4 is translated:
a) Source: "by means of", Wernberg-M=F8ller (1957:35) or "gr=E2ce =E0" Carm=
ignac
and Guilbert (1961:60), "=E0 partir de", Milik cf. Carmignac (1956:524).
b) Rejection: "without" by Mart=EDnez (1994:13), Knibb (1987:138), Vermes
(1987:74), Charlesworth (1994:39); Dupont-Sommer and Philonenko using
"sans" (1987:34).
c) Comparison: "paa en bedre maate end" =3D "in a better way than",
Nielsen/Otzen (1959:85), Lohse (1971:33), and Pouilly has "plus que"
(1976:28).
Carmignac (1956:524) points also to the following authors who understand
the min as comparison: van der Ploeg, Lambert, Brownlee, Schubert, Bardtke,
Molin, Dupont-Sommer, Verm=E8s and Burrows. Several of them must have change=
d
their views, e.g. Verm=E8s and Dupont-Sommer.
