James the Brother of Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls 1 & 2

Eisenman’s late dating is at variance with the broad consensus of the entire field of Qumran studies. Radiocarbon dating alone points to Hasmonean and Herodian dates for much of the material, such as 1QpHab (88-2 BCE 1σ probability). The scrolls contain historical references that belong to the second and first centuries BCE; see Hanan Eshel’s The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hasmonean State (Eerdmans, 2008) for a detailed discussion of the evidence. https://www.jstor.org/stable/4193320?seq=1#metadata_info_tab_contents
