The textual findings of Qumran and the Codex Aleppo mark two turning points in the textual history of the Hebrew Bible. The textual history of this collection of Jewish writings is at the centre of the scientific life of Emanuel Tov, whom the University honored with an international symposium discussing his theses on the occasion of his 65th birthday Emanuel Tov's textual history research and one of his own works on the subject. Contributed by Emanuel Tov, Armin Lange, Josef M. Oesch, Friedrich V. Reiterer, Hermann-Josef Stipp, Hanna Tervanotko, Kevin Trompelt and József Zengellér.
