abstract = "This study explores intriguing points of contact between embryonic sectarianism as identified in the Dead Sea Scrolls with emerging sectarianism in the Hebrew Bible. In particular, I suggest that the small fellowship groups that ultimately gave rise to the Qumran milieu are the heirs of the Torah-disciples identified by Alexander Rof{\'e} as lying behind the shaping of the Hebrew Bible. My particular focus is a passage from the opening lines of 1QS 6 (1QS 6:6b-7a), read side by side with Josh 1:8 and Ps 1:2. This approach offers opportunities to bridge the gap between the circles that shaped the final stages of parts of the Hebrew Bible and incipient communal life as described in 1QS 6:6b-7a.",
