The Scrolls were written on animal skins with carbon based ink with no punctuations at all. The Dead Sea Scrolls happen to be proof that the Jewish culture was richer and different 20 centuries ago then anybody thought. They are 825-870 different documents. To the general public the Scrolls are artifacts of great significance, mystery, and drama. It has been determined that most of the Scrolls were written before the birth of Jesus.

They were found within many different years. They all happen to be found within the years of 1946-1956. The first Scrolls were found during the winter of 1946-1947. 300 Scroll fragments from 33 manuscripts were found February 1952 inside Cave 2. On March 14, 1952 the Copper Scroll and 14 Scroll manuscripts were found in Cave 3. August 1952 15,000 fragments from more than 500 different Scrolls were found in Cave 4. Archaeologists excavated caves 7-9 but didn’t find much. In 1956 Cave 11 was discovered along with 21 lengthy texts including the 28 foot long Temple Scroll

They were found in one place within many different caves. They were found throughout 11 caves high up along the sea cliffs overlooking the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea around 13-20 miles east of Jerusalem in what is known as the Judean Desert. The Scrolls were found wrapped in cloth in narrow ceramic jars along the wall of the dark cave. They were found not long from the ruins of Khirbet Qumran. The first 7 Scrolls were found in Cave 1, 14 more in Cave 3, 500 in Cave 4, 25 in Cave 5, 31 in Cave 6,less than 20 in cave 7,8-9 had only 10,and 21 more in Cave 11. Clearly they were all found differently.

There are many reasons why the Dead Sea Scrolls. They are so important because of how old they are. Discovery of the Scrolls offered scholars an invaluable source for the nature of post-biblical times and studying the sources of two of the worlds great religions. Since their discovery excavation, reassembly, and translation, the Dead Sea Scrolls have provided us with many fascinating insights. They are pretty important because Prochecies not found in the Bible are written in the Scrolls, and never before seen psalms are in them. They can enhance our knowledge of both Judaism and Christianity, also how the Bible was transmitted across the ages.
