A community portal about The Dead Sea Scrolls with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Dead Sea scrolls comprise roughly 825-872 documents, including texts from the Hebrew Bible, discovered between 1947 and 1956 in eleven caves in and around the Wadi Qumran. The texts are of great religious and historical significance, as they are practically the only known surviving Biblical documents written before AD 100.

I visited the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto on the weekend and its exhibition of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Discovered between 1947 and 1956 by Bedouin goat-herders in a series of caves off the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea, the Scrolls were authored between 200 BCE and 68 CE. Over 900 separate documents were unearthed, pieced together from over 100,000 scroll fragments. Among these ancient manuscripts are the oldest-known copies of the Hebrew Bible, hymns, prayers and other important writings. They are a link to the ancient Middle East and to the birth of Judaism and Christianity. Over 200 biblical manuscripts are more ... Read Full Story

Students and university officials started getting e-mails last year in which a prominent Judaic studies scholar seemed to make a startling confession: He had committed plagiarism. The messages, it turned out, were a hoax. Prosecutors filed criminal charges, saying a lawyer sent the messages to tarnish the professor, his father's rival. The court case has drawn attention to issues both ancient (the origin of the Dead Sea Scrolls) and decidedly modern (phony online identities). On Wednesday, a defense attorney asked a judge to throw out most of the charges, saying they put parodies, pranks and freewheeling Internet discussion at risk. The more than 2,000-year-old ...

The Gothamist writes:Posting online comments under multiple aliases is apparently against the law, at least in the case of Raphael Haim Golb, 49, who is suspected of using 50 different e-mail addresses and monikers — some of the names belonging to academic rivals — to bolster his arguments about the origins of the Dead Sea Scrolls. To back up his belief that the relics were actually produced in Jerusalem libraries, Golb allegedly used multiple...

I walked out of my house the other day and I saw something that was amazingly similar to the Dead Sea Scrolls sitting on my porch. I vaguely remembered these items from years gone by, but honestly hadn’t looked at them in forever. Okay, they were phonebooks. Remember those? You used to have to use them to look up information about businesses in your area. They were loaded with great information like phone numbers, addresses, maps sometimes...
