Ein Kapitel aus dem Buch On Wings of Prayer

Abstract

This article investigates the linkage between two Jewish Palestinian liturgical customs, a millennium apart: a collection of psalms attested among the Dead Sea Scrolls, best preserved in the scroll 11Q5 or 11QPsa; and the practice of Tefillat ha-Shir (“the Song”), added to Pesukei deZimrah in the Palestinian prayer books from the Cairo Genizah. Two main elements are examined: the use of the Songs of Ascent, and the emphasis on the Davidic authorship. We conclude that there is no genetic link between the two collections. Their typological resemblance, however, demonstrates the shared themes and motifs of Qumran and rabbinic prayer.
