What Are the Dead Sea Scrolls?

The Dead Sea Scrolls, found at Qumran in the 1940s, are about as big as archaeological discoveries get.

Q: You know why I get read about stuff like this and make videos about it?
A: Because a bunch of awesome people on the Internet decided to support the program at patreon.com/tmbh
Thank you all for making this kind of Internet happen!

Truly amazing how God unveils more and more to us just setting it all in concrete! We have NO excuses God has given us every opportunity to be saved! Praise Jesus our Lord!!!

You know, when The Ten Minute Bible Hour is really close to ten minutes, you become very concise, very precise and very absorbable. This was the best explanation of the Dead Sea Scrolls I've ever heard, and I have heard them droned-on about way too many times. Well done.

When I went to Israel last winter, I had the amazing opportunity to see some of the Dead Sea Scrolls and boy was it amazing. Thanks Matt for the amazing video!

I love that Papyrus is written the Papyrus font.

I had just yesterday said that I want to look more into the Dead Sea Scrolls. Perfect timing, Matt.

When I heard the intro start playing at 0:39 I legitametly thought I was playing the podcast somewhere in the background by accident 😂. Lovely music.

Hurry! Hurry! I can hardly wait for the next show about the Dead Sea Scrolls. Thanks much. Diane in NC

I love how Matt just rolls by “metal inscribed scrolls” and “treasure hunt” like it’s no big deal. 🤔😳😬

Hi Matt, just beginning my walk with God and I have so much I want to understand. Most of my life I’ve maintained an agnostic position without really digging into all the information. My brother, who is a Christian, has helped me so much to understand the word and I too am fascinated by the Dead Sea scrolls. Thanks for a great intro and look forward to hearing more from you about TDSS🙏

[fraserdodds]

Really interesting - love your passion for this!

Through the difficulties that have risen due to covid I had to unsubscribe to all my patreon subscriptions; however, this channel is the only one I decided I could spare the money for and continued subbing to because of how genuinely valuable it is. Not just to me, but I truly believe to all believers and non believers alike, priceless conversations happen here and wonderful insights.

This topic is absolutely fascinating! I knew about Qumran and the Essenes, but I didn’t know much more. Thank you for this overview!

[ericratliff]

Matt, please consider recording a dialog with Jimmy Akin. He's spoken a lot about this topic too and it would be fascinating to hear the two of you talk.

How Interesting that Israel is became a nation in 1948
The dead sea scrolls were found in 1947.

The Lords words to Daniel
Daniel 12:4
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

Not only a 2300 year old story but a 2300 year old story that is THE SAME as our Bible today - despite the number of translations and interpretations....WOW!

[JoshieboyStudios]

I am VERY excited for this series! Great vid, Matt!
