As a test case I would expect comparison with one scroll or a tabulation of all occurances. This could well be a cherry pick. When I get time I will xref.

The test case is not for the whole DSS, but only intended to show the similarities between MT Isaiah and the Isaiah Scroll. Studies have already been done that demonstrate how alike MT Isaiah and the latter are.

The three links you provided are helpful and worthwhile IMO. You might also recall an older blog entry that suggested a 95% correspondency between DSS Isaiah and MT. See https://fosterheologicalreflections.blogspot.com/search?q=archer
