In 1947, a Bedouin shepherd stumbled upon a remarkable discovery in the Judaean Desert – the first of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Over the next decade, this chance finding would lead to the unearthing of thousands of manuscript fragments from 11 caves near the ancient site of Qumran, dating back two millennia.  These fragile parchments, include the oldest known copies of the Hebrew Bible and an extraordinary library of previously unknown religious writings.  These scrolls are now being exhibited at The Ronald Reagan Library.  Ed Stetzer will talk with Biola's Dominick Hernandez and The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation's Melissa Giller about the scrolls and how they offer unprecedented insights into the spiritual and cultural landscape of the Second Temple period on Ed Stetzer Live.
