The most authoritative edition of the Dead Sea Scrolls available! Enhanced by previously unpublished material and a new preface, Vermes's classic resource provides superb translations of the texts, as well as a detailed look at the cultural, historical, and religious background of the Qumran community. Essential reading for everybody interested in ancient Judaism and early Christianity. 648 pages, softcover from Penguin.

Geza Vermes was born in Hungary in 1924, and was the first professor of Jewish studies at Oxford. He is the author of The Changing Faces of Jesus and The Authentic Gospel of Jesus.

Excellent, up-to-date... will enable the general public to read the non- biblical scrolls and to judge for themselves their importance. (The New York Times Book Review)
