The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences located in downtown Raleigh will be hosting an exhibition of the Dead Sea Scrolls from June 28 to December 28. The Dead Sea Scrolls are objects of great mystery, intrigue and significance and are widely acknowledged to be among the greatest archaeological treasures ever discovered.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are date from 250 BCE to 68 CE and are our bridge to a period that laid the foundation of western traditions, beliefs and practices throughout the past two millennia. Among the Scrolls are some 207 biblical manuscripts that represent nearly every book in the Hebrew Bible (Christian Old Testament) and that predate any previously known copies by more than 1,000 years.
