It has been over 50 years since the first of the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in the caves in the Judean desert near Wadi Qumram in the Holy Land. This documentary, which traces the history of the journey from that earth-shattering discovery to today, is part of A&E's "Ancient Mysteries: New investigations of the unsolved. The video traces historically how the various scrolls were located, disbursed and brought back together for all scholars to study and share their interpretations and translations. I recommend this for congregational libraries needing a balanced look at this 20th century revelation of Bible related study in their collections.
