A Response to Eshbal Ratzon, “Methodological Issues concerning the Astronomy of Qumran”
This article offers a brief response to a recent article by Eshbal Ratzon, in which she is critical of an article we published in DSD on the Aramaic Astronomical Book in 2014. Ratzon raised several methodological issues with respect to our essay. In this response we attempt to clarify the relationship of our paper to those issues.
