Overview: The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible: The Oldest Known Bible Translated for the First Time into English is the first full English translation of the Hebrew scriptures used by the Essene sect at Qumran. (The Essenes, along with the Pharisees and Saducees, were among the three most influential Jewish groups of their time [150 B.C. to 68 A.D.]). Between 1947 and 1956, in 11 caves overlooking the Dead Sea, more than 800 manuscripts of two types were found. The first are called "biblical"–because they contain material that was later canonized in the Hebrew Bible; the second are called "non-Biblical"–because they contain poetry, rules for holy living, and imaginative, midrashic interpretations that are unique to the community that produced them
