Monday Night Bible Study
The year: 1947
A Bedouin shepherd tracks one of his stray goats into a cave mouth above the shore of the Dead Sea at a desolate place known as Qumran. Inside, he discovers a pair of tall, thin clay pots. And what he finds when he opens those pots will be nothing less than the greatest archaeological discovery of the 20th century: the Dead Sea Scrolls.
The Dead Sea Scrolls contain not only our oldest copies of the Bible, but Jewish texts from the 3rd century BCE through the year 68 CE. These texts provide an unprecedented view of Jewish history, culture and religion during one of the most fertile periods of ancient human history.
For an introduction to these exciting texts and a broader understanding of history, culture and religion from before and during the time of Jesus, join us for our 2010 Summer Archaeology Series:
