In the November/December 1991 issue three supposedly new texts were published, with translations by Robert Eisenman (“Long-Secret Plates from the Unpublished Corpus,” BAR 17:06).
An Israeli court has issued an injunction ordering the Biblical Archaeology Society, the publisher of BAR, not to distribute or even USC its two-volume set of photographs of the hitherto unpublished Dead Sea Scrolls.
The Biblical Archaeology Society Publication Awards recognize the best new books on archaeology and the Bible. A generous gift from the Leopold and Clara M. Fellner Charitable Foundation by its Trustee Frederick L. Simmons has allowed the resumption of the awards. The 1991 awards are for books published from 1986 through 1990.
