They had to get permission of the authors.

Scholarly jealousy, envy, infighting over who would get credit and be the first to write about their contents. A shame.

Thanks, I knew there was a reason. Copyright laws and all that. LOL!

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the 'scholars' fought publication to keep it for themselves.

"Scholarly jealousy, envy, infighting over who would get credit and be the first to write about their contents. A shame." It figures.

What took them so long?The Tri-lateral commission and the Jesuits couldn't agree with the Bilderburgers
about releasing the scrolls that pertain to Elvis and the Kennedy murder.

Jeshua ben Josef, a.k.a. Jesus the Nasorean, was an Essene.

What about the Isaiah 53 scroll which proves that Jesus is and was the 'suffering savior, the fulfillment of the passover lamb?
This is the passage that the ancient rabbis deliberately deleted from their scriptures as an attempt to invalidate the claims of Jews who formed the nucleus of those who had 'eyes to see and ears to hear'.
"He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearer's is dumb, so he opened not his mouth.
He was taken from prison and from judgement: and who shall declare his generation: For he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities."
Never in the history of humanity, and specifically the Jewish race, has anyone's life even partially fulfill the 'prophetic picture' they way a certain carpentar from Nazareth did in complete detail.
"The people that walked in darkeness have seem a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined."

I'd want to see one of Tom Brokaw's ten minute "In Depth" reports before I run out and buy one! ;^)
To: 11th Earl of Mar
wow...some exciting reading for those long winter nights! Hey i have a book by Dr Yigael Yadin called the war scroll.It's an apocalyptic work similar to the book of Revelation.So the publising of all the scrolls will certainly make Bible scholarship more readily available to the general public.

"What took them so long?" Hey, we should feel lucky. Deep Thought took 7 milllion years and all he came up with was 42!

Frankly, for the most part it's a big yawn. A lot of people were hoping that it would cut the ground out from under the gospel accounts and the New Testament generally. Hasn't happened.

What took them so long? The Roman Catholic hierarchy and the Jesuits sat on them for decades. The scrolls didn't follow the desired line.

Do the scrolls contain more prophecy? No, but they've got a recipe for beer that's to die for.
