orion More questions for RA
Dear Rochelle:
I appreciate your willingness to respond to the plethora of questions that
seem to be pouring out of the net. Dave Washburn has a web sit at
www.nyx.net/~dwashbur/ At the link on his page called "Great Isaiah Scroll
Directory" there is a picture of a scroll fragment. Are the horizontal
strokes at the right of line 1 in that picture examples of what you refer to
as formating a scroll that would be done by a scribe? Next, he states
"[n]otice also that an editor has written a "he" above the 4th word in the
second line making the word "ve-'aziynu" to be "ve-ha'azinu."" Is this
interrlineated "he" an example of what a person dictating a scroll might do
in editing the scribes work? Recently there was comment about possible
Chineese marginal symbols. Could these be an "editors" mark indicating that
text has been reviwed - something like an editors mark on page proofs?
