" From Jerusalem, Peuch said he
fears the unconventional methods employed by Wacholder and Abegg
will
result in the circulation of defective texts. That is the chief
reason
given by members of the committee for not releasing the scrolls:
They
have said that deciphering the handwriting of ancient scribes is
difficult and time-consuming, and that premature release of the
scrolls
would only burden future generations of biblical scholars with
inaccurate texts. "
[Chicago Tribune 1991 secondary source]
4Q521 Qumran Sefer
There is no Messiah in there,
but the Christians insert the english word "Messiah."
Peuch did not do that.
He has spent the longest time with the source text.
