In AD 67, members of a mysterious religious sect hid a collection of over 900 sacred scrolls in caves in the Judean desert bordering the Dead Sea. The chance discovery of the ancient scrolls 2000 years later was considered one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time and sent shock waves through the world of Bible scholarship. Who wrote them? Why were they hidden? And why are they so important to us today?
