In 1947, a Bedouin shepherd near the cliffs of Qumran stumbled upon one of the greatest archaeological finds of the modern era. Among the ancient scrolls he uncovered was the complete book of Isaiah, dated to roughly 100 BCE. One chapter, Isaiah 53, contains a prophecy that points to the suffering of Jesus more than a century before his birth.
This Bible Seminar will look at how the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered and dated, drawing on both scientific analysis and paleographic evidence. We will also take a closer look at the contents of Isaiah 53 and consider why it remains relevant for us today.
Light refreshments and small bites provided!
