Maze: Qumran

Maze: Qumran

Secret of Qumran - Dead Sea Scrolls http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aSJsdRorJo

From Masada, we continued along the shores of the Dead Sea for a look out on the oasis of Ein Gedi, where David hid in a cave when running from Saul (1 Samuel 23). It's where David composed several of his Psalms.

Then we walked through the ruins of the Essene community. In this spot, an amazing cache of ancient biblical texts were discovered in 1947 - community called the Dead Sea Scrolls.
