The narrative voice of this work is Rosenblatt’s, drawing on her private and professional experiences. For simplicity’s sake I will refer to her as the author.

The Temple Scroll, in Florentino García Martínez, The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated, 2nd ed., trans. Wilfred G.E. Watso (Leiden/Grand Rapids: Brill/Eerdmans, 1996), pp. 154–184, in which is outlined he criticism of the corruption of the Temple together with the guidelines for the day when Yahweh would deliver the institution to the community for proper administration.

The Testament of Moses, trans. J. Priest, in The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha, ed. James Charlesworth, vol. 1 (Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1983), p. 919. This apparent first-century document is in part an attack on the enemies of righteousness who are connected with the Temple’s administration.
