Abstract: 

Four copies of Canticles were found in Qumran (4Q106, 4Q107, 4Q108 and 6Q6), two of which (4Q106 and 4Q107) differ substantially from all other known witnesses, both text-critically and compositionally. In this article, I discuss a selection of variant readings that reveal one aspect of the textual dynamics that underlies the transmission of this biblical book in antiquity, namely, the tendency to level the language and formulation of similar or nearby passages by analogy, such that one passage exerts influence on the other. The verses discussed in this article are: Song of Songs 1:2–4; 2:11–14; 4:1–5; 4:8, 10, 16.
