Best-selling book on the Scrolls, updated to reflect current
scholarship and recent debates The premier Dead Sea Scrolls primer
ever since its original publication in 1994, James VanderKam's Dead
Sea Scrolls Today won the Biblical Archaeology Society's
Publication Award in 1995 for the Best Popular Book on Biblical
Archaeology. In this expanded and updated edition the book will
continue to illuminate the greatest archaeological find in modern
times. While retaining the format, style, and aims of the first
edition, the second edition of The Dead Sea Scrolls Today takes
into account the full publication of the texts from the caves and
the post-1994 debates about the Qumran site, and it contains an
additional section regarding information that the Scrolls provide
about Second Temple Judaism and the groups prominent at the time.
Further, VanderKam has enlarged the bibliographies throughout and
changed the phrasing in many places. Finally, quotations of the
Scrolls are from the fifth edition of Geza Vermes's translation,
The Complete Dead Sea Scrolls in English (Penguin, 1997).
