Abstract

This article advances an old-new reconstruction of the debated line 9 of the "List of False Prophets" (4Q339) on the basis of a fresh look at the text, made possible by the new photographs published by the Leon Levy Digital Library project. This reconstruction is then reinforced by arguments from the field of the study of lists that are brought into the discussion of this text, as it engages several claims previously made in scholarship regarding the form of the List of False Prophets and the internal order of prophets therein.
