The eschatological role of the Jerusalem temple in the temple scroll

Annotation

The article is devoted to the study of the image of the Jerusalem Temple in the Qumran Temple Scroll and its influence on the Messianic-eschatological representation of the Qumran community. According to the author of the article, the Temple Scroll displays accelerated eschatology, the catalyst of which is the creation of an ideal Jerusalem Temple. 11QT speaks of eschatology, according to which God will come to earth and consecrate the Temple, which will be realized in life by both human and divine efforts. The New Jerusalem Temple will be erected in historical time, and the Eschaton will begin from the moment when the Lord arrives at the Sanctuary.
