This study is the first monograph published on the subject of wisdom and Qumran. The question to what extent the Essene community was influenced by wisdom is answered using as an example the connection between the original order in wisdom thought, and predestination. Use is made of both wisdom and non-wisdom texts from the Qumran caves.
In the attempt to overcome the crisis of knowledge in wisdom thought, even the non-Essene texts from Qumran developed the wisdom notion of a pre-existent order of being and history which was to be realised in the Eschaton. This notion was taken up in non-wisdom texts and elaborated into a dualistic ordering of the world and of history, structured in epochs. In this form the notion was used by the Essene community to deal theologically with their negative experience of reality (schism, persecution by Hasmonoaeans, delay of the Eschaton). The results of this investigation are thus able to confirm critical points of the thesis of G. von Rad that apocalyptic developed out of wisdom.
