Abstract:
Scrolls 2Q18 and 11QPs XXI–XXII are the only fragments discovered in Qumran from the Book of Ben Sira. They are both poems of praise for the wisdom personified in female terms. Scroll 4Q179 is a text which imitates Lamentations 1 and 4, but the female imagery in it is much more pronounced. Are these facts significant? Can they tell us anything about the attitude of the Qumranites to the Ketuvim, and to the female images presented therein? This paper will explore this premise.
