The Dead Sea Scrolls

Sadly, the name Jum'a Muhanmed, is not memorable. When The Dead Sea Scrolls are mentioned it is always in the light "a shepherd found them." His name is lost to the average person, like the scrolls he found were lost for more than two millenia. Yet, it was an accomplice, named Wolf who was first to be able to "put his hands on them." Interesting information about academic secrecies, minipulation and intrigue. The black and white art work is lovely but real old newspaper/magazine articles, genuine photographs would have been more impressive. All in all, there has been much interest in the culture and thought of the Essenes populace, the unrest of the day in which the scrolls were penned, but the end of the world also -- is still being pondered thousands of years later, from which the scrolls fuel the heated debate.
