The Nahal Hever Greek Scroll of the Minor Prophets (8Hev ILLgr) also contains part of Habakkuk and was hidden during the revolt against Rome by the Bar Kokhba. Two Christina Bible manuscripts from 350 A.D. contain Habakkuk which are (1) Vaticanus (325-250 A.D.) and Alexadrinus (C.450 A.D.) The entire book of Habakkuk is also in the Sinaiticus.

             COMPARISON: PESHER HABAKKUK AND BIBLICAL HABAKKUK.

             In the comparison of Pesher Habakkuk (I:16-III:3) with Habakkuk 1:5-7 the following is considered: In Habakkuk: 1:5-7 it is stated Behold ye among the heathen and regard, and wonder marvelously, for I will work a work in your days which ye will not believe though it be told you. " (Habakkuk 1:5-7, Holy Bible KJV)Pesher Habakkuk interprets this as ".those who were unfaithful together with the Liar, in that they [did] not [listen to the word received by] the Teacher of Righteousness from the mouth of God. And it concerns the unfaithful of the New [Covenant] in that they have not believed in the Covenant of God [and have profaned] his holy Name." The interpretation in biblical thinking is that those who are of violence and who are breakers of the New Covenant and who are not faithful at the end of days will be unbelieving when they hear what is going to occur to the final generation. The pesher emphasizes Hab.1: 5-7 as stating in detail to enemies, both inner and outer who are not faithful to the sect. .

             According to Polliack (2005) the words of Habakkuk are "thus interpreted with the clear intention of unraveling in them the details of the fulfillment of the prophetic vision in the specific history of the sect." (Polliack, 2005) Polliack states that the "interpretive techniques typical of midrash and pesher in the foregoing verses have a "change of version from bagoyim to bogdim, the atomizing and charging of the repetitive sight synonyms with added meaning."(Polliack, 2005) .

             In Chapter 2: 13 of Habakkuk reads: "I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
