as they teach doctrines of commandments of the sons of men.'

Because Isaiah is a lengthy book virtually preserved in its entirety in 1QIsa^a, and since there are so many Isaiah scrolls, for the translation of this book and accompanying variants a somewhat different approach has been taken here than with other books in The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible. The translation that follows is consistently from 1QIsa^a, with the readings from the other scrolls shown in the footnotes. Some of the insignificant variants (usually involving spelling) are not noted. Moreover, in this translation the Septuagint is sometimes, but not always, collated for variant readings. The main reason for this is that Isaiah is mainly poetry,^c and the Septuagint contains a rather free Greek translation of the unvocalized Hebrew poetry; it is thus often difficult to tell exactly which Hebrew form is being translated. However, most of the more significant Septuagint variants are recorded.
c: However, text was subsequently written down in prose format in the scrolls as well as in the Hebrew text used by the Septuagint translator(s).

Before the discovery of copies of the book of Tobit among the Dead Sea Scrolls, scholars debated whether the tale was originally written in Greek or perhaps a Semitic language (Hebrew or Aramaic).
As is often the case with new discoveries, the Dead Sea Scrolls answered the original question but raised another.
Of the five scrolls uncovered in Cave 4, four are written in Aramaic while one is in Hebrew.
The debate has already begun as to which represents the _original_ tongue.
Another important discussion concerns the date of the writing.
Those experts who argued before the Qumran findings for the first to third centuries CE have now been silenced, because the oldest manuscript-- 4QTobit^d-- dates to 100 BCE (though the tale was probably composed as early at the late third century BCE).
