This volume represents the current state of Samaritan research. The studies, which were presented at the seventh international conference of the Société d’Études Samaritaines, deal with several aspects of the field of Samaritan studies, like the connections of Samaritan history and religion to the Old Testament, problems of the temple building on Mount Gerizim in the Persian or Hellenistic period, linguistic characteristics of the Samaritan Hebrew language and Samaritan theological questions of the Arabic era. Papers were written by the leading scholars of Samaritan studies.
