You must be referring to O'Callaghan's claim (followed by Carsten Thiede)
that 7Q5 is a fragment of Mark. It isn't!!!! By the way, o"Callaghan just
suggested that it MIGHT be whereas Thiede said it IS).
There is O'Callaghan's article linked to the Orion web site- but before you
waste time reading a theory that simply will not wash, see Graham Stanton's
"Gospel Truth" where he rightly debunks the whole nonsense. There are NO NT
fragments at Qumran. NONE!
Best,
Jim
