146 ‘–’ indicates that the first words of the scroll have not been preserved.<br />

1471QS, 1QSa, and 1QSb are usually conceived of as a single composition, mainly because of the reconstructed title of 1QS<br />

which may have referred to 1QSa and 1QSb as well ( ]ˆúmw<br />

djóyhó ˚[rs rps]). However, 1QSa and 1QSb also began with a<br />

title, and 1QSa could not have been stitched after 1QS (see n. 149).<br />

148Frgs. 1 and 2 of this scroll were probably reconstructed as the first fragments because of their wide initial margin. They<br />

contain the fourth Sabbath Song (and not the first one), so that the other manuscripts of this composition must have<br />

been arranged differently.
