124:, Abegg began to collaborate with Professor Ben Zion Wacholder. John Strugnell, chief editor of the scrolls, had sent Wacholder a copy of the secret concordance of the Dead Sea Scrolls the editors were using at the time. Using this concordance, Abegg created a computerized database for the Dead Sea Scrolls texts. Abegg decided to publish this material while he was completing his dissertation. Though this made Dead Sea Scrolls studies more convenient, Abegg was met with fury. Many influential scholars had been kept away from the materials while the editorial team worked on their first edition of scroll translation. Those who had the privilege of working with the scrolls were angry that their work had been undermined. However, Abegg's publication broke a forty-year monopoly on the scrolls, allowing scholars of all kinds access to examine the artifacts. Furthermore, Abegg's work on the concordance gave him the opportunity to create computer research tools in association with Accordance Bible Software for Dead Sea Scrolls research. Essentially, Abegg's work accelerated Dead Sea Scrolls research.

Apart from his career, Abegg's interests include hiking, playing the guitar, and good books and music. He met his wife Susan while hiking in
Washington's Olympic Mountains in 1974, they married in 1975, and a decade of farm life and summers mountaineering before deciding to start a family; they had

from 1995 to 2015. Here, Abegg held the Ben Zion
Wacholder Professorship. Because Abegg is an influential Dead Sea Scrolls scholar, he has been honoured with a collection of essays written by his peers and students.
