Archeology and the Dead Sea Scrolls
Description
The Dead Sea Scrolls were first discovered in 1947 but the archeological work continues to this day. Consisting of religious text and sectarian manuscripts in several different ancient languages, the question of who wrote the scrolls has yet to be definitively answered. This film explores that question as well as the story told by the scrolls, including the contents of one of the scrolls, the Rules for the Congregation, which gives the rules for living in the Messianic age.
