Abstract

A new statistical analysis of the Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa) reveals it was written by three distinct scribes, challenging previous theories regarding its production. The study identifies three textual segments based on orthographic, morphological, and material features, providing a quantitative framework for identifying scribal fingerprints.
