From a new generation of Dead Sea Scrolls scholars comes this
landmark work. Michael Wise, Martin Abegg, Jr. and Edward Cook
bring the long-inaccessible ancient scrolls of Qumran vividly to
life, translating and deciphering virtually every legible portion
of the fragmented scrolls, with startling results. For the first
time since their discovery, this historic volume reveals:
Intriguing revelations about biblical history and the roots of
Christianity.
Never-before-seen stories about Abraham, Jacob, and Enoch--
including a text explaining why God demanded the sacrifice of
Isaac.
Twelve texts not included in the Bible that claim Moses as their
author.
New psalms attributed to King David and to Joshua.
Texts illuminating ancient doctrines about angels and writings
claiming to be revelations of angels themselves-- including the
Archangel Michael.
The translators provide pointed commentary throughout that
places the scrolls in their true historical context. Their
compelling, insightful introduction not only presents an overview
of the often surprising contents of the scrolls, it discusses what
are perhaps their greatest mysteries--who authored them and
why.
