Gary A. Rendsburg
Whether complete or only fragmentary, the 930 extant Dead Sea Scrolls irrevocably altered how we look at and understand the foundations of faith and religious practice. Now you can get a comprehensive introduction to this unique series of archaeological documents, and to scholars' evolving understanding of their authorship and significance, with these 24 lectures. Learn what the scrolls are, what they contain, and how the insights they offered into religious and ancient history came into focus.
In following the extraordinary story of how the scrolls were acquired and ultimately published - a story fully 40 years in its unfolding - you'll also explore an almost unlimited treasure trove of new facts and insights. Throughout the lectures, you'll learn about these and other topics: the only historical instance of the Jews ever forcibly converting a conquered people to Judaism; the rare stroke of scholarly fortune represented in the discovery of the first seven scrolls sealed in jars; and the extraordinary intrigue (sometimes spanning generations) that overlays the story of the scrolls.
At the heart of this series are the documents themselves. You'll spend a wealth of time reading parts of the actual scrolls in English translation, training your eye to uncover the salient religious practices and intriguing theological ideas expressed in these documents. By the conclusion of the final lecture, you'll have developed a newfound understanding and appreciation of an unprecedented historical find and its enduring influence on the way we think about - and talk about - ancient Judaism and Christianity.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Would you listen to The Dead Sea Scrolls again? Why?
I have listened to it at least three times, and many chapters more times than that.What did you like best about this story?
Knowledgeable instructor who is truly excited by his field.Have you listened to any of Professor Gary A. Rendsburg’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
They are all excellent, but this is my hands down favorite audible book of all time.Any additional comments?
He truly conveys the excitement of this find as well as enumerating the facts and figures. But at the end of a lecture, he will say, "and tomorrow, we enter cave four...", the live audience applauds, and I sigh as I put the car back in gear to find somewhere else to drive, of real or imaginary significance.Spellbinding
