Enigma of the Dead Sea Scrolls DVD
The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered in 1947 by a Bedouin shepherd boy, are the oldest original biblical manuscripts in existence. Hidden for more than 2,000 years, it is alleged by scientists, theologists, and archaeologists that their discovery has provided new insight into previously unknown events that occurred during the life of Jesus and that influenced the emergence of Christianity. The many miracles that surround their discovery and their suspicious handling by scholars ever since have given rise to widespread public curiosity and demands that their content be released in its entirety.
Enigma of the Dead Sea Scrolls follows the path of the scrolls from the Bedouin desert tribe that found them to the antiquities dealer who bought them, from the hostile Arab territory out of which they were smuggled all the way to the laboratory and the museum. Every step of the scrolls' turbulent journey is accompanied by commentary and interviews with archaeologists, historians, scroll experts, theologians, clergy, and others who claim that the scrolls are indeed missing links in the world's history, links allegedly still too momentous for the Christian and Jewish worlds to discover.
