The discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll in the Judean desert between 1947 and 1956 was one of the greatest archaeological finds of all time. These manuscripts appear to have been hidden in the caves at Quantum by the Essenes, a Jewish sect in existence before and during the time of Jesus. Written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, the scrolls have transformed our understanding of the Hebrew Bible, early Judaism and the origins of Christianity. A renowned biblical scholar offers, after years of legal and academic difficulties, a reliable, accurate, and complete translation of the famous Dead Sea Scrolls, ancient documents that have deeply affected our knowledge of the past and of Judeo-Christian origins.
