Ll. 1–2 . This is Qimron’s reconstruction based on Lev 16:17, 24, 33–34. The atonement for the land is absent from the biblical descriptions of the Day of Atonement but is found in Num 35:33 (cf. Deut 32:43).673 The notion of the atonement for the land is further developed in 1QapGen X, 13 and Jub. 6:2, in which Noah’s sacrifice after the flood is interpreted as an atonement for the land (cf. also Jub. 4:26).674 One may also note several sectarian texts (1QS VIII, 6, 10; IX, 4–5; 1QSa I, 3; 4Q265 7 9) that depict the Qumran community functioning to atone for the land. However, 1Q22 seems to be the only known Second Temple source that includes an actual procedure for the atonement of the land in its description of the Day of Atonement.
