damascus document teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı
or Zadokite Fragments Document associated with the ancient Jewish community at Qumrn. The group had fled to the desert during Antiochus IV Epiphanes's persecutions (175-164/163 BC). The document must predate the revolt of AD 66-70, which forced the community to disband. It is known from fragments found in caves at Qumrn as well as from 10th-12th-century manuscripts. The first section calls for fidelity to God's covenant and observance of the Sabbath and also introduces the sect's leader, the Teacher of Righteousness. The second contains statutes dealing with vows, community assemblies, and admission and instruction of new members. See also Dead Sea Scrolls
