Description
From a new generation of Dead Sea Scrolls scholars, here is a fresh look, including the most recently released texts, at the scrolls. Michael Wise, Martin Abegg, Jr., and Edward Cook unlock the secrets and rich mysteries of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the most comprehensive translation ever published for the general reader in any language.
"A remarkable feat. The authors, all three quite young... cover more texts than any other English translation published to date, and usually offer the right solutions to knotty problems typical of the scrolls, with analogies to current religious experience. Here is a translation of the Dead Sea Scrolls [that] pastors and layfolk can read and understand."
- James A Sanders, president, Ancient Biblical Manuscript Center - from Amzon
