Scripture and Interpretation: Qumran Texts that Rework the Bible

In a recent Enoch Seminar Online review, Atar Livneh calls attention to an important book on Rewritten Scripture that warrants the attention of those working on the topic:

Ariel Feldman and Liora Goldman, Scripture and Interpretation: Qumran Texts that Rework the Bible. Edited and introduced by Devorah Dimant. Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft 449. Berlin: de Gruyter, 2014.

The book has both editions and commentaries on selected Rewritten Scripture texts from Qumran that promise to be of great interest. And of course, in light of the recent Review of Biblical Literature decision to close off public access to their reviews, it's always nice to find helpful reviews conveniently published online!
