As noted,
we ought to distinguish the texts
that contain the Essene worldview from the Qumran trove as a whole.
A similar challenge exists with regard to the relationship between the Essene writings &
the biblical apocrypha. It is clear that the Essene writings are apocalyptic -
this is a major issue in the scrolls. Among the Jewish apocryphal works
there are some that emerged from the same dualistic conception
that gave rise to the Essene cult, including Jubilees,
the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs,
and the Book of Enoch which is
preserved in its entirety
in Ethiopic {Geez}.

One area
that has not received the attention it merits
is the potential contribution of Qumran Hebrew to the history of the Hebrew language:
I believe the language of the scrolls is largely artificial. The Qumran authors took care
to avoid rabbinic Hebrew, preferring to imitate the Hebrew of the Bible, but the shift is not always smooth; occasionally one finds in the Qumran texts clear influence of Rabbinic Hebrew & even of Aramaic. Moreover, there are Qumran passages whose Hebrew is very similar to that used in Jewish
liturgy to this very day - passages composed by members
of the sect itself.

In this regard,
it is important to bear in mind
that the Essene sect, & the broader movement within which
it took shape, are part of the wondrous phenomenon known as Second Temple Judaism.
It would be wrong to isolate the Qumran sectarians from the broader Jewish context of the time.
Indeed, they bear the same special message that helped shape
the spiritual profile of Judaism
to the present day.

As for early Christianity,
Judaism & the origins of Christianity
is a collection of stories devoted to that topic:
let us state for now that the teachings of Yehoshua
reflect first and foremost the views of the sages, but they are also influenced by Jewish apocalypticism. Yeshua knew the Essenes but rejected their cultish separatism. To the extent
that his teachings show traces of Qumran influence, it was most likely
transmitted through Yochanan the Baptist, who was closer
to the Essene sectarians {though he too
rejected their separatism}!

Interestingly,
the Qumran theology
exerts greater influence
on the second layer of formative Christianity,
that is, on the epistles of Paul
and other New Testament
texts.

Genoeg
voor vandaag, I hope:
de belangrijkste conclusie voor 't moment blijft,
dat 'n zogenaamd "gezond volksverstand" vol van zinloze tradities, verouderde gewoonten
& het buitensluiten van minderheden & onaangepasten levensgevaarlijk is voor 'n gemeenschap!

Wat begint met o.a. het verbranden van boeken eindigt met het vernietigen van mensen?

En wat als normaal verplicht aan alle anderen blijkt te worden opgelegd
kan haast niet anders dan telkens weer ontaarden
in massavernietiging en nog groter ellende
voor steeds meer mensen: censuur,
discriminatie, genocide, big
brotherdictatuur en vals
populisme als ster-
reklame en loos
opportunisme
...
bah!
