Agreed. That may also explain why Jesus referred to pottery several times in his teaching. Referring to his people as clay that is formed by the potters hands and as vessels to be used as God wills.

The Ancient Egyptians believed the god Khnum formed men out of clay on his potter's wheel.

I don't think we can assume a connection between CHrist an Qumran on that basis alone.
