38. Published by James C. VanderKam and Jozef T. Milik, “4QpseudoJubilees a–c”
in Qumran Cave 4.VIII: Parabiblical Texts, Part 1 (DJD 13; Oxford: Clarendon, 1994),
141–85. The title Pseudo-Jubilees is unfortunate. For reasons to dissociate this work
from Jubilees, see Devorah Dimant, “Two ‘Scientific’ Fictions: The So-called Book of
Noah and the Alleged Quotation of Jubilees in CD XVI, 3–4,” in Studies in the Hebrew
Bible, Qumran and the Septuagint Presented to Eugene Ulrich (ed. P. W. Flint, E. Tov, and J.
C. VanderKam; Leiden: Brill, 2006), 230–49.
39. Published by Carol Newsom, “Apocryphon of Joshua,” in Qumran Cave 4.XVII:
Parabiblical Texts, Part 3 (DJD 22; Oxford: Clarendon, 1996), 237–88. Another piece of
rewritten Bible, perhaps related to the literature about Joshua, is apparently represented
by small fragments of 4Q123, termed by the editor as “4QpaleoParaJosh,”
edited by Eugene C. Ulrich in Qumran Cave 4.IV: Palaeo-Hebrew and Greek Biblical
Manuscripts (DJD 9; Oxford: Clarendon, 1992), 201–3.
40. Published by Émile Puech, “4QProphétie de Josué (4QapocrJosué c?),” in Qumrân
Grotte 4.XVIII: Textes Hébreux (4Q521–4Q528, 4Q576–4Q579) (DJD 25; Oxford:
Clarendon, 1998), 39–74. For identification of this manuscript as part of the Apocryphon
of Joshua, cf. Elisha Qimron, “Concerning ‘Joshua Cycle’ from Qumran (4Q522),” Tarbiz
63 (1994): 503–8 (Hebrew); Emanuel Tov, “The Rewritten Book of Joshua as Found at
Qumran and Masada,” in Biblical Perspectives: Early Use and Interpretation of the Bible in the
Light of the Dead Sea Scrolls (ed. M. E. Stone and E. G. Chazon; STDJ 28; Leiden: Brill,
1998), 233–56 (see n5); Devorah Dimant, “The Apocryphon of Joshua—4Q522 9 ii: A
Reappraisal,” in Emanuel: Studies in Hebrew Bible, Septuagint, and the Dead Sea Scrolls in Honor
of Emanuel Tov (ed. S. M. Paul et al.; VTSup 94; Leiden: Brill, 2003), 179–204.
41. This is a fragment with a list of toponyms and may have been part of a fourth
copy of the Apocryphon. Cf. Tov in Biblical Perspective (see n40), 241–43, 250–51. A small
fragment found in Masada, Mas 11, may have also come from a copy of this work.
