This is the third, revised edition of the standard commentary on the Genesis Apocryphon by the author. The first edition appeared in 1966, and the second in 1971. The third edition, which is about 80 pages longer, has integrated new textual findings, in particular two columns of the text previously considered to be too fragmentary for inclusion. The commentary also evaluates recent scholarly discussion on virtually every part of the text. This edition, like the previous two, also presents an updated reference grammar of the Aramaic of the Genesis Apocryphon and a complete glossary. In this respect the book can also serve as a solid introduction to the study of the Aramaic of Qumran.
