abstract

  • Hidden untouched in caves for two millennia, now for fifty years the Dead Sea Scrolls have been poked and prodded to yield their treasure of knowledge about the history of early Jews and Christians. This veritable "who's who" of international Scrolls research commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls with essays focused on The History of Dead Sea Scrolls Research; The Scrolls and the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, Early Judaism and the New Testament; The Damascus Document; and The Future of Dead Sea Scrolls Research.
