Emanuel Tov
Hebrew University Bible scholar and one of the field's foundational textual critics of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hebrew Bible — for decades the editor-in-chief of the official Dead Sea Scrolls publication project. His scholarship on the textual history of the Hebrew Bible is the established body of work against which "oldest Hebrew biblical text found outside the Dead Sea Scrolls" — the superlative attached to the En-Gedi Leviticus scroll — is implicitly measured. Matters to this vault as a co-author of the 2016 Textus peer-reviewed publication that independently corroborates the En-Gedi scroll's 2015 reading from a venue and authorship substantially independent of both the University of Kentucky and the Vesuvius Challenge.
