4QDeut(j) does read )LWHYM. What's the significance of this? Well,
the vast majority of DSS support a more MT-style text"

If I understand correctly, there is one Qumran MS which reads )LWHYM
in Deut 32:8 and another doubtful one that reads )L[...]. Are you
saying that there are other MSS from other caves which support the MT
reading "sons of Israel" in this verse? Or just that other MSS are
generally closer to MT but this verse is not otherwise attested?

And where is the evidence for )L or )LYM to fit Lloyd's theory rather
than )LWHYM?
