Joseph Angel, PhD, to Discuss the Dead Sea Scrolls at Fairfield University’s Annual
Scholar-in-Residence Lecture on April 3

Fairfield University’s Bennett Center for Judaic Studies is pleased to welcome Joseph Angel, PhD, to present at the Annual Adolph and Ruth Schnurmacher Scholar-in-Residence Lecture, on April 3, at 5 p.m., in the Kelley Presentation Room.

Dr. Angel’s lecture titled, “Scrolls and Scripture: The History of the Bible in Light of the
Dead Sea Scrolls Discoveries,” will focus on the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the
middle of the 20th century. This extraordinary finding resurfaced dozens of the oldest
biblical manuscripts in the world. In conversation with various specific textual examples,
this lecture will examine how these discoveries have revolutionized our understanding of
significant areas in biblical studies, including the transmission history of the scriptural text,
the development of individual books, and the formation of the scriptural canon.

Dr. Angel has been a Professor of Bible and Jewish History at Yeshiva University since 2008,
teaching courses on ancient Judaism and biblical studies. His research is focused on Jewish
literature and history in the Greco-Roman world, and with a special interest in the religious
milieu and themes of the Dead Sea Scrolls. He has held research fellowships at the
University of Göttingen, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and, most recently, the
University of Michigan and currently serves on the editorial boards of the Journal for the
Study of the Pseudepigrapha and Brill’s Online Encyclopedia of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

He is the author of a number of publications exploring topics related to ancient Judaism,
including prayer, messianism, demonology and magic, the Second Temple of Jerusalem, and
the Jewish context of nascent Christianity. His most recent book, The Songs of the Sage
(4Q510-511) (Brill, 2023), provides a material reconstruction, critical edition, and
commentary on two ancient Hebrew prayer manuscripts discovered at Qumran.
