Abstract
This study reexamines fragment 2 of scroll 6Q18, one of 31 manuscripts discovered in Qumran Cave 6. Traditionally considered part of a liturgical or apotropaic composition, this fragment is the largest and most substantial among the surviving fragments attributed to 6Q18. Through a detailed analysis of PAM (Palestine Archaeological Museum) photographs and physical features, the article argues that fragment 2 did not originate in Cave 6but rather in Cave 4, and should therefore be excluded from the 6Q18 corpus
