“For Good Remembrance before God in this Place”: Tracing the Concept of ’Good Remembrance’ in Semitic Inscriptions from the Late Persian and Hellenistic Period and in the Hebrew BiblePaper presented at the 2010 EABS annual meeting in Tartu, Estonia. During the Mount Gerizim excavations which were carried out between 1983 and 2006 under the direction of Yitzhak Magen a Yahwistic sanctuary and a Hellenistic city were uncovered at the site of Mount Gerizim. Some four hundred inscriptions were found in and around the temple precinct, presumably belonging to the second building phase, i.e. the early second century BCE. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mas1o Papyrus Paleo Fragment
("Mount Gerizim") Description and Background Mas1o is the only scroll fragment in the Masada exhibit that is written on papyrus. It is distinctive also because it is written in the paleo-Hebrew script by two scribes. One scribe wrote on the "front" side of the fragment, the other on the "back" side. In his preliminary report of the excavation, Professor Yigael Yadin noted that the script of this fragment is similar to that of the coins found in the same location as the fragment.1 Of the fragment's few discernible words, the phrase joyful singing occurs in three consecutive lines. These lines are followed by a line containing the place-name Mount Gerizim. This fragment has been identified as a Samaritan document because of the unique way Mount Gerizim is written. Because Mount Gerizim is a sacred site for Samaritans (the site of their temple), they adopted the practice of writing these two separate words as one word. However, Hebrew texts of non-Samaritan origin keep the two words separate. Thus the fragment can confidently be identified as Samaritan in origin. Scholars have tentatively identified it as a liturgical document because of the references to joyful singing.

I should have purchased it sooner. Anyone that has an interest in the Samaritan Israelites will also be interested in the scrolls of Torah and other written manuscripts. Crown's work illuminates the scribes, and so many diverse Samaritan manuscripts that the work can only be realized as incredible to say the least. As for me I get excited reading it. Many of the Samaritan family names, I had never heard of. The literature, dates, explanations and even corrects of the studied manuscripts is eye opening. The research, individual manuscript studies must have taken an enormous about of time. Alan Crown, the book is really remarkable, I really do thank you! The book is Samaritan Scribes and Manuscripts was published in 2001 by J.C.B. Mohr.
