Prior to the discovery of the Scrolls, the oldest complete Bible was dated to the 11th century A.D. But now this book translates texts more than 1,000 years older. The author has joined with two eminent colleagues, to translate for the first time the previously unpublished biblical manuscripts. This volume includes all 220 of the biblical Dead Sea Scrolls, with hundreds of new & different readings from the Old Testament. The Scrolls preserve parts of every book in the Hebrew Bible, except the Book of Esther, and largely confirm the texts that have been in use for 2,000 years. Commentary by the editors provides insight into the rich cultural and religious traditions behind the scrolls and the Bible itself.
