   Dear all,
what do you think about the etymology of seret (srt) hayyaHad in the (restored) title of 1QS, occurring also elsewhere in Qumran literature? Is it related to Aram. srk 'to clutch, hold fast, hang to'  (Jastrow 1027b)  and serek ''clinging to, following the example of; habit' (ibid.1028a), and if it is, what is the  semantic relation between these notions  and 'RULE  of the Community'? Common law?
Thank you
   Serge Lyosov
