From the dramatic find in the caves of Qumran, the world's most ancient version of the Bible allows us to read the scriptures as they were in the time of Jesus.

Ratings and reviews

Facinating that Dead Sea scrolls show that our manuscripts are reliable. Contains prophesies of Jesus that predate his time by hundreds of years, such as Isaiah 51 through 53. The isaiah manuscript is so old that it is written in paleoHebrew script - the pre-Babylonian exile script. The Bible is unchanged. The prophesies that speak of Jesus are older than his being on this earth. And we know of Jesus' existence not only because of the witness of His followers but also because secular evidence of the day.

I just ordered the paper back version from Amazon. Excited to get it.Praise God

Very Good!
