The nature and reliability of the ancient sources are among the most important issues in the scholarship on the Dead Sea Scrolls. It is noteworthy, therefore, that scholars have grown increasingly skeptical about the value of these materials for reconstructing the life of the Teacher of Righteousness. Travis B. Williams' study is designed to address this new perspective and its implications for historical inquiry. He offers an important corrective to popular conceptions of history and memory by introducing memory theory as a means of informing historical investigation. Charting a new methodological course in Dead Sea Scrolls research, Williams reveals that properly representing the past requires an explanation of how the mnemonic evidence found in the relevant sources could have developed from a historical progression that began with the Teacher. His book represents the first attempt in Dead Sea Scrolls scholarship to integrate history and memory in a comprehensive way.

Unter Bezugnahme auf aktuelle Erkenntnisse aus dem Postkolonialismus und der Sozialpsychologie versucht Travis B. Williams, die soziale Strategie guter Werke im 1. Petrusbrief zu bestimmen, indem er untersucht, wie die fortwährende Ermahnung "Gutes zu tun" als angemessene Antwort auf soziale Konflikte dienen soll. Der Autor stellt den modernen Konsens infrage, welcher diese Rede von guten Werken im Brief als einen Versuch sieht, der griechisch-römischen Gesellschaft gefällig zu sein und damit die Feindseligkeit zu verringern und zeigt, dass die Ermunterung "Gutes zu tun" ein Verhaltensmuster vorsieht, welches populären Werten entgegensteht. Der Verfasser des Petrusbriefs verwendet eine Terminologie, die normalerweise mit Reichtum und sozialen Privilegien assoziiert wurde und gibt ihr eine neue Bedeutung, um seiner Leserschaft einen alternativen Blick auf die Realität zu gewähren; eine Realität, in der die in der Gesellschaft so geschätzte Ehre und Anerkennung endlich auch für sie erreichbar ist. Das Motiv der guten Werke bringt einen konkurrierenden Diskurs zum Ausdruck, der die herrschenden sozialen Strukturen und die ihnen zugrunde liegende vorherrschende Ideologie infrage stellt.
