WHAT DO THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS SAY ABOUT THE END OF THE WORLD? Since the photographs of the Dead Sea Scrolls were released in 1992, there has been an explosion of interest in them. This volume explores the issue of apocalypticism in the Scrolls; how the notions of the 'end', Messianic expectation and eternal life affected the Dead Sea sect, influenced Judaism and filtered into Christianity. Collins' volume provides a valuable and accessible introduction to the interpretation of the Scrolls, which is an informative addition to the series examining the major themes of the Scroll texts. 220.0460415146364 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 220.046 Col a E07003341 Non Fiction 220.046 Col a images_%286%29.jpg 47192 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-12-05 19:00:28 machine generated
