4QDi–4Q273a: קטע חדש של ברית דמשק ז 7—13 ממערה 4

One of the Qumran Cave 4 unidentified fragments, PAM 44.102 frag. 66, preserves part of the text of the Damascus Document, corresponding to CD 7:7–13. The fragment displays one certain variant compared to the Cairo Genizah manuscript, namely in the quotation of Isaiah 7:17. The fragment reads למיום with Isa 7:17 (both MT and 1QIsaa), against CD The script of the fragment is clearly different from all the other .מיום 7:12 Qumran Damascus Document manuscripts. Hence, the fragment probably is the sole survivor of a ninth Cave 4 Damascus Document manuscript, to which one may give the number 4Q273a and the name 4QDi.
