CD



Hey, alright, I'll bite. People have been confusing the hell out of me: I've
received three posts from 3 different people using "CD" -- my first reaction
was that it was referring to the Community Document or Rule. The second post
brought a similar but less secure reaction. The third made me think that
"CD" referred to what I have referred to as the Zadokite fragments a la
Schiffman or Damascus Rule a la Vermes, even the Damascus Document. The
reason for this was that the death of the righteous teacher and the twenty
years was mentioned in relation to the "CD".

Now tell me, please, what does "CD" stand for, so that it makes sense:
something like Codex Damascus?? Covenant Document??? (-- so that I can be
put out of my misery -- *bang*)
