Abstract: 

A close revision of photo 302362 of the fragments published by Shemaryahu Talmon as “Genesis Apocryphon” has led the present author to the conviction: firstly that the most substantial fragment (1) has been written by two scribes (A and B); and secondly that two other fragments have been written by yet another scribe (C). The fragments should therefore rather be regarded as (at least) two different scrolls whose genre and theme cannot be identified due to their highly fragmentary condition.
