The Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa), one of the original seven Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in Qumran in 1947.  "The version of the text is generally in agreement with the Masoretic or traditional version codified in medieval codices, such as the Aleppo Codex, but it contains many variant readings, alternative spellings, scribal errors, and corrections. Unlike most of the biblical scrolls from Qumran, it exhibits a very full orthography (spelling), revealing how Hebrew was pronounced in the Second Temple Period" (http://dss.collections.imj.org.il/isaiah).
