One of the principal theological themes of the Hebrew Bible is the relationship between Israel and God. At the heart of this bond is the supernatural experience at Sinai.

The singularity of this relationship amidst surrounding polytheistic cultures is so much emphasized that Israel’s principal contribution to the world of religious ideology is often regarded as uncompromising covenantal monotheism. Israelite identity and in later centuries Jewish identity was also expressed in terms of ethnicity and...

They vanished without a trace, leaving behind no temples, no monuments, no written accounts of their own. But in the barren caves of Qumran, hidden away for two thousand years, the whispers of their world remained—sealed inside fragile scrolls. The Essenes were not merely a religious sect; they were purists, visionaries, and outcasts who believed they alone held the key to divine truth.
