Dr. Emanuel Tov (J.L. Magnes Professor of Bible, Hebrew University, Jerusalem, and Editor-in-Chief, Dead Sea Scrolls Publication Project) focuses on the activities of the scribes who lived at Qumran. Lecture details range from the preparation of the leather to the actual writing in columns, and their level of precision, the way they wrote, and erred - after all scribes were human!
