Nicole Rupschus touches upon classical and current issues in Qumran research relating to the communitys inhabitants, the intention of its texts, and the source value of the Essenes accounts to discover the role played by women. Her consideration of three important elements the archaeology, the sectarian texts found in caves near and next to Qumran, and the ancient accounts of the Essenes are vital in enabling her to draw conclusions about the skeletons of women and children found in burial grounds. Other focal points are the Damascus and Serekh texts as well as the Rule of the Congregation, the connections between them, and their assignments to the community. Together with a final content analysis of the ancient Essene texts, a fresh image of women is revealed that opens up new perspectives in Qumran research.
Nicole Rupschus beruhrt in ihrer Studie klassische und aktuelle Themen der Qumranforschung, die sich in der Frage nach den Einwohnern Qumrans, der Intention der Qumrantexte und dem Quellenwert der Essenerberichte bundeln lassen. Konkret erfasst sie drei wichtige Aspekte: Erstens die Archaologie, zweitens die gruppenspezifischen Texte der Hohlen in und bei Qumran und drittens die antiken Berichte uber die Essener. Eine separate Betrachtung von Archaologie und Texten ist hierbei grundlegend. Die Autorin bezieht Stellung zu den auf dem Friedhof gefundenen Frauen- und Kinderskeletten. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt liegt auf den Damaskus- und Serekh-Texten sowie der Gemeinschaftsregel, ihren Verbindungslinien und Gemeinschaftszuschreibungen. Zuletzt analysiert sie den Aussagegehalt der antiken Essenertexte. In der Zusammenschau ergeben sich neue Facetten fur Frauen und Frauenbilder in Bezug auf Qumran.
