About this title: Three scholars offer a new translation of the Dead Sea Scrolls, with material never published or translated before. The book includes previously unknown stories about Abraham and Jacob, non-Biblical texts claiming Moses as their author, newly published Psalms attributed to David, and many other writings that shed light on the origins of Christianity and the close relationship between Jews and early Christians.

"Good stuff, but formatted for the scholar and not the typical reader. The books are in fragments, and thus there are many parts missing in them. While there is some expert conjecture implemented to reconstruct words and sentences, even this is highly limited."
"This was a great read, took a long time but was well worth it. Too often we talk about a subject or book but never have read it ourselves. The Dead Sea Scrolls fits in this catagory. People talk about rather than respond to the text themselves. There is a general introduction and then there is a short intro before each text. One sees the similarities and the differences with the Biblical text. It was a good discipline to finish this book."
