Some people misunderstand the Scrolls and make the mistake of believing that these are the originals of the Bible. This Dead Sea Scroll guide gives a more accurate picture of this important archaeological find. Includes insights on the Isaiah Scroll and other key discoveries. The pamphlet delves into the people who possessed the scrolls, the "Dead Sea Sect." In addition to leaving the scrolls with biblical passages in clay pots under floors and in caves, the sect also left a variety of other writings including their religious rituals, marriage contracts, and predictions of future events, among other documents.
